Father and son coroners, Tommy and Austin Tilden (Brian Cox and Emile Hirsch), attempt to find the cause of death of an unidentified woman found half buried in the basement at the scene of a multiple homicide. As they delve deeper and deeper, they discover a series of bizarre clues that point to a bone-chilling conclusion.In a genre saturated with mediocre movies, supernatural horror The Autopsy of Jane Doe stands out as a superbly crafted creepfest that delivers nerve-jangling shivers, while providing enough graphic gruesomeness for those who enjoy more visceral thrills.The film starts out as a fascinating study of a rather revolting vocation, as Tommy and Austin systematically dissect the 'Jane Doe' looking for answers, with director André Øvredal lovingly capturing every sloppy detail of the process. Things start to get seriously creepy once the pair start to reveal the truth about the woman's past, all the evidence pointing to the unthinkable, the action ultimately entering the realms of the fantastic.Øvredal expertly cranks up the suspense, using his shadowy morgue setting to great effect, gradually introducing more and more unsettling elements guaranteed to leave the viewer with sweaty palms and on the edge of their seat (there's something about a reanimated corpse with its eyes and mouth sewn shut that really gets the heart a-pounding, although its the simple sound of a ringing bell that generates maximum tension).Best watched alone at night with the lights out and the doors open, The Autopsy of Jane Doe is a good old-fashioned scary horror that rarely puts a foot wrong, and in these days, that's something to be celebrated.

Unpredictable horror love it perfect horror storm scary and a couple jump scares but only a couple and yet interesting i would fully recommend seeing this than deciding on its user total score it should be higher gripping scary horror film

'The Autopsy of Jane Doe' is a chilling and suspenseful film, but falls short of being great due to it's tasteless climax. Director André Øvredal uses his limited setting well and creates a great claustrophobic feeling that immerses it's audience into the mystery of the film. The two leading actors both portray their characters well, and have a great father-son chemistry that helps bring the story alive. While the first half is very compelling and suspenseful, the film loses it's audience when the cliches start rolling in. While Øvredal had great potential with the original plot line he never really reached greatness. He set up the viewers for a plot twist that was rather unsatisfying. Then, predictable cliches and cheap jump scares were added in to make it worse. However, despite my negativity on the last half of this film, overall it was still quite good. The suspenseful first half was definitely unsettling and the mystery was very intriguing. It was made very well, with great directing on Øverdal's part. Had the ending to this movie went a little further, then this would have been one hell of a horror movie.

It's about a father/son pair of surgeons who work at the morgue. Their latest dissection is a woman whose skin and muscles are smooth from the outside, but joints are broken inside. They discover more and more layers of her body throughout the surgery. The joints broken has no bruises or exit wounds. It was very good. It started out as a mystery and turned into a very scary supernatural horror movie. Suspenseful, smart and scary. Even it's most preposterous scenes (like her inner skin filled with codes and Roman numerals) were relevant because she was originally a witch that was tortured years ago and her spirit is trying to live again through harming others which helps keep her body more "alive". Very well done.
