The Autopsy of Jane Doe (2016)

Taking into account all of the mundane, cliche-driven, hugely ineffective supernatural-horror movies that are thoughtlessly thrown before undemanding casual film-goers for the sake of a quick weekend box office cash-grab, it's always a breath of fresh air when a supernatural movie comes along and reminds us cynics that originality IS still possible within this horror sub-genre. "The Autopsy of Jane Doe" is a very intriguing and creepy film that manages to be unpredictable and compellingly cryptic.

A father-and-son morgue outfit receives corpse of an unidentified young woman who was discovered in the basement of a house containing several brutally murdered people. Set with a strict deadline to determine the cause of death, the duo start burning the midnight oil in search of any death-inflicting indicators. As the the examination progresses, they start finding weird internal harm and abnormalities throughout the body with no external signs of trauma. Things get more and more bizarre as they come across more arcane evidence within the body that culminates into a rather chaotic outcome...

The build-up of this movie works very well in providing a creepy and 'contained' atmosphere along with pretty convincing autopsy gore effects and, ultimately, an intensely morbid conclusion. The lack of the obvious, mainstream 'devices' all too often overused in 'ghostly'/occult-themed movies was also a welcomed sight-for-sore-eyes - such as the absence of children, dolls, spooky old country homes, and the minimality of jump-scares. Check out "The Autopsy of Jane Doe" if you're craving a cool, effective horror flick!
