Smoreni Zmaj Shortly after being caught in adultery, dentist experience a car accident from which he comes out almost unscathed, while his wife ends up in a coma with minimal chances of recovery. While in hospital, wife dies several times and doctors revive her, but every time while in a state of clinical death, her spirit uses the opportunity to take revenge on the people which she considers guilty for her situation.At first seemingly uninteresting, this episode hides some pleasant surprises, in the form of good acting, a few extremely erotic scenes and several great plot twists that I did not expect. I especially liked the end, which is both creepy and very witty in dark humorous way. I have only one objection. I think that the episode would be more effective as a psychological horror, where instead of the most severely disfigured woman and explicit violence, the victims are waiting in suspense to be attacked by her invisible spirit. I would get rid of the most of the gore and keep just the bathtub scene and the last scene with mistress.7,5/10
trashgang Only 10 minutes into Right To Die I thought not again another story with a lot of talking going on and things you see coming from miles away. But I was wrong. It's only at the end that the plot change comes in and you get to know what really was going on the last 50 minutes.It starts with a couple Abby (Julia Benson) and Cliff (Martin Donovan) driving and having a small argue. When Abby wants to show Cliff something they both doesn't notice the road and when they do there's a tree laying on the ground on which they crash, leaving Cliff alive and well but Abby being burned. Flashforward were Cliff wakes up at the hospital and notice that Abby is still alive but heavily burned. He feels guilty, he had an affair with Trish (Robin Sydney) and he couldn't save his wife Abby.From there on slowly we see what really happened with both of them. Abby somehow comes back in a vengeful spirit but even Cliff has a gruesome mind.I must agree that it also somehow reminded me of the Hellraiser (1987) were flesh is needed to survive. It also has a few nice gory shots and a bit of CGI here and there but CGI I didn't mind at all by which I mean the one when Cliff is taking a bath and having a sex dream with his wife Abby. And by saying that yes there's a bit of nudity from Robin and Julia. But what I really liked is the fact that you think what will happen do happen but there's another plot change you couldn't see coming. This could easily have been a full feature. Some strong performances by all and some decent effects too. The burned body is a must see and the part at the hospital when the advocate get his punishment by Abby is pure horror. This episode has an old school horror feeling and it even reminded me of Franco's Faceless (1987). A must see for the old school buffs even as it isn't really gory at all.Gore 1,5/5 Nudity 2/5 Effects 4/5 Story 3/5 Comedy 0/5
BaronBl00d Well, a man and his wife set out for their cabin one dark night. They have been fighting - for she, Abby, had recently discovered that her husband Cliff had been unfaithful(and pretty stupid it seems as the whole episode was filmed on his camera((By whom?))with his dental assistant Trish. As they go down that dark, deserted, and deadly road, they hit a fallen tree. She ends up being burned all over and covered in bandages except for her haunting eyes and mouth. He wakes up unscathed. The rest of the episode deals with Cliff having such feelings of loss over his wife's condition that he feels he must pull the plug for her benefit as she has no skin - no skin at all. The episode then gets lots of ups and downs, and even some real low points with regard to good taste, and some highlights with both Robin Sydney and even more impressively with Julia Anderson(now Benson). Check out her highlights in that tub scene. That scene has her in all her bare-chested glory, but the director Rob Schmidt also has Ave Maria playing in the background. He uses that music again in the most unorthodox and, for me, disgustingly enjoyable scene in the episode - the flaying. I really thought this episode was done very well. Schmidt obviously has loads of talent. Actor Martin Donovan has enough quirky screen persona and ambiguity to carry off what will by the episode's end be a much more complex role that might be first imagined. The script has some fun with things. Sure there are holes, but this was scary, riveting, and strangely poetic at brief times. And how about Abby's two major contribution as well as Trish's! Corbin Bernsen is here as well as a blood-sucking lawyer given his "burn notice." Wrong show, maybe he was just PSYCHed out.
gavin6942 A man and his wife get in a horrible car accident. When the wife is left in a persistent vegetative state, the man must choose between pulling the plug and letting her live. The decision is made even harder when he realizes her ghost wants to extract revenge on him and those around him.This comes to us from director Rob Schmidt, who made "Wrong Turn" (a film I have not seen). With only one horror film under his belt, and not a particularly notorious one at that, I was a bit reluctant to watch this episode, expecting Schmidt to be a "Master of Horror" in only the most liberal sense. My apologies to him for my underestimation. As of episode 10 in a 13 episode season, this was actually the best one yet.The issue of the "right to die" is dealt with and covered in enough detail to be a solid plot device. However, this is only the foundation on which the story revolves. Once the horror elements show up, the film goes from "decent" to "spectacular". Great acting, great plot, great dialogue, great suspense. I was a little creeped out at times (which is good) and most of all: the gore is in extreme abundance! I read a review of this episode prior to watching it, where the reviewer said there is a strong hint of "Hellraiser" in this. Through the first part of the show, I had no idea what they were talking about. Then there is a bit later where some images do remind me of "Hellraiser 2". However, I in no way wish to say that this takes away from the film. I can see no other way to create the effect that was created, and in my opinion this looks remarkably better than "Hellraiser 2".Some plot twists show up later on, and might invite the viewer to give the film a second look. I didn't watch it a second time, but I think the beginning would make more sense if I had (not that it's confusing). The subplot with the dental hygienist is also nice, and I found myself going back and forth about whether I disliked the main character for his relationship with her or if I felt bad for him. He's somewhat of an anti-hero to the whole story, if you will. I feel inclined to cheer for him as the protagonist, but he's completely unlovable.While the Stuart Gordon episode may be better and I'm excited about the "Washingtonians" episode, I think I could safely bet that this is the key episode of the season and by far the saving grace of what was otherwise lackluster and routine. When legends like John Carpenter let me down (again) I get a bit worried about the genre's future, but then a fresh face like Rob Schmidt comes along and gives me hope. This one is a keeper, and please bring Schmidt back for season 3!
