As a horror fan, i watch over 1500-2000 movies, and got a one big picture of good suspenseful horror movies should be all about.Im not in slashers or gore fest like movies, but story driven kind is my taste....And to finish the title of this review: ...what the man who read scenario had in his head that he wanted to make this a movie.Lead roll? Horrible...The movie is just complete waste of your time if you are horror fan.I've seen many real B horror movies made with 4-5 figures budget, that put this movie to the ground.Just bad and complete waste of time.Floating in tank full of that body's is scene that puts this to the top, or should I say to complete garbage.Tank is about 1,5 m in depth. The guy just floats around 40cm from the top, and the girl just has to take of the shirt and go in to fetch him, like she has 5cm long arms, and cant reach him from the top....Stupid...stupid...stupid...

8 Movies to die for. Sadly I have seen several movies from them and just don't understand the hype. I have seen better on late night TV.Medical students are learning anatomy and doing an autopsy. They have gotten the wrong corpse, she has a vendetta and doesn't care who she gets revenge on.One of the students decides to investigate and researches the back story of the corpse. It's like an episode of Scooby Doo but with a cadaver.Basically, it's not a very good movie and if I had paid to see it in a theater instead of at home, I would have been angry I wasted money to see this.

Oh the movie isn't exactly bad although essentially it's another one of those ghost films Hollywood's constantly regurgitating into cinemas, minus the jump "scares" (seriously, if you're going to try making scary films, try making films that are scary, loud blaring noises don't cut it). At least Afterdark Horrorfest only made this mistake once.Mysterious deaths, protagonist gets tormented rather than offed, meets love interest who then tries helping her before they too fall victim to the murderous spirit. Oh and naturally, they're required to investigate what could have angered the spirit enough to start killing.Sound familiar? Thought so.Not exactly bad, just overdone to the extent it feels like lifeless filler. I understand Hollywood making ridiculous amounts of films like this for commercial purposes, but horror festivals, generally being run by people with understanding of the genre, should know better.

If you watched this and felt it needed "more" you could try watching the original German film called "Anatomie." It's subtitled, yeah, but a bit better acting. Includes Franke Portente in the leading lady role. This film follows Anatomie almost to the letter, but the acting is simply not as good IMHO.I agree w/a few other comments about calling medical students Doctor and the concept of Aztec curses from Brazil.It wasn't a bad way to spend a sleepless late night, but I still prefer the German version.I highly recommend the German release (from 2000 I think) even with subtitles. Although I never checked the DVD to find out if I could play the DVD w/a voice over.
