Review of Autopsy

Autopsy (1975)
6/10
level-headed giallo
22 January 2003
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
