The Final Patient

THE FINAL PATIENT stars Bill Cobbs as Dr. Green, an aging small town physician with a severely ill wife. Despite his age, Green seems to possess superhuman strength and vitality. Two young med students are determined to learn his secret. Unfortunately, there's a hefty price for such knowledge.

Cobbs is excellent in his role, managing to be both kindly and mysterious. This movie is reminiscent of some of the better episodes of the old TV show NIGHT GALLERY from the 1970's.

It's nice and creepy with a malevolent twist. It's only real flaw is its length. About 10-15 minutes could have been shaved off to make it more tense...
