As somebody who had not heard any of this before, it became a curious phenomenon to sit and watch a film and slowly have the realities begin to click into place.

The acting is good, and the firecracker script has some excellent ideas.

One of the best movies of the year! Incredible from the beginning to the end.

Though there are some sporadically nicely shot scenes and of course an interesting score by Ennio Morricone, this movie doesn't offer anything new or interesting to the genre. The story is all over the map, too much so. You also get the impression it was written while the film was rolling; it's too fragmented and there isn't any character to identify with. There is also a blatant lack of suspense and there's nothing really thrilling or frightening occurring on screen. Essentially though watchable, there's nothing really compelling to follow. The "explanation" thrown in at the 11th hour is slightly ridiculous and too complicated and nonsensical for it's own good. I guess the best that I can say is that it's certainly an interesting mess but by no means compulsory viewing.

A rather confusing giallo and I think in part this is because of rather lazy direction and a poor performance from Mimsy Farmer who seems to get the wrong look most times and leave us in doubt as to what she is thinking or feeling. One essential in giallo is some sort of empathy for the lead, even if that eventually turns out to be misplaced! Here I don't feel many are very concerned for what happens to Mimsy. And plenty does, that's for certain. Is there another movie where the lead actress gets so much abuse and groping, not to mention attempted rape and up skirt shots!? Of course the Morricone score is first rate and for all the confusion this is a very varied and very different giallo that maintains the interest throughout.

Granted, this isn't Argento-caliber, but "Autopsy" is a rewarding, interesting, and sometimes surprisingly brainy giallo. Beware of the Anchor Bay packaging that makes it out to look like a slasher taking place in a morgue, this is more of a traditional 'whodunit' featuring Mimsy Farmer ("The Black Cat") as a frigid student doing a thesis on suicide (real vs. assisted), Ray Lovelock ("Let Sleeping Corpses Lie") as her playboy boyfriend, and Barry Primus, who's wildly over-the-top as a screw-loose priest. "Autopsy" tends to be long on exposition and limited in violence, but if you appreciate a good story, look no further.6/10

Recently, when going through my horror collection, I decided to check out all my Italian horrors. I figured that since I was going to Italy I might as well watch some Italian horror. AUTOPSY is much tamer than the cover illustrates, though it has its gory moments. It is overall a very stylish horror film that makes good use of its sets. The acting was great and I enjoyed the Italian scenery. ***out of****For a very good film overall that's stylish and worth at least one viewing.
