Time For Unauthorized Surgery!

Sometimes I really, really like a foreign movie. This movie "Anatomy", or "Anatomie" in German, was very well done. I could totally imagine the U.S. making a movie like this but sometimes the U.S. does not come up with every good idea, as some would like to think. This is a great idea for a movie and it genuinely creeped me out. The idea is some doctors are part of an underground cult called the Anti-hippocratics. Ironic as that is, since they're hypocrites for performing sick, unauthorized surgeries on living people. Yes, living people! They end up as those figures you see in museums where you can see the anatomy of the body. They're real bodies in real life too! The made up part is where the movie takes over. In the movie we're led to believe they were all victims of this cult and sliced up while awake. What a sick thought. The cult said they were performing unauthorized research to get funding. That really makes you think about what they meant, but I still don't agree with it. Even if they did make a discovery it shouldn't be with unwilling victims using dangerous science. They wanted to come up with new medicines that were untested and sell them to pharmaceutical companies. It's really a delusion of grandeur. I could see how some discoveries could be made but most discoveries get made in a college, not by some experimental means. Maybe that's what happens when people are so smart. They might think they're smart enough to do it on their own and start their own group, secret society. This movie had great foreshadowing and suspense. It was sort of like "Hostel" at parts but still managed to take its own path. I was guessing who the psychos were the whole time. In the end it delivered and one guy really got the worst of it; being plasticized by his own injection. Just as he's trying to inject plain water with salt mixed in into his vein he freezes in that form forever as a figurine. You will really like this movie if you're a fan of horror and suspense and even some gore. I'm glad I found this one. Medical students scare me.
