The autopsy of Jane Doe

When the police investigate the site of a triple murder, they find the body of a woman, half buried in the basement of the house. The body is brought to the local morgue for post-mortem examination.

During my last year of Criminology at the University, I had to do an internship with the Forensic team. For a few months, I’ve spent my time at the morgue, assisting during autopsies. It was an experience I’ll never forget. I’ve never found it disgusting or creepy, only scientifically interesting.

I am very glad that I didn’t see this movie during my internship though… Of all the things that could possibly go wrong during an autopsy, this one I would have never imagined.

I won’t spoil the plot but I can tell you that the autopsy of Jane Doe gave us a few chills. The story is well paced and the actors are convincing. We especially enjoyed to see an horror movie that, for once, doesn’t happen in a haunted house, a creepy forest or a torture chamber.
