This week's Staff Pick is:

The Autopsy of Jane Doe (2016)



Directed by: André Řvredal
Written by: Ian Goldberg and Richard Naing
IMDB: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt3289956/

Summary: "Cox and Hirsch play father and son coroners who receive a mysterious homicide victim with no apparent cause of death. As they attempt to identify the beautiful young "Jane Doe," they discover increasingly bizarre clues that hold the key to her terrifying secrets"

I don't really know much about this movie but the concept sounds cool and I've read that it basically all takes place in this single room, while these two guys poke and prod and get terrified by their assumptions of the unknown. Could be neat? It's streaming at a bunch of places, and audience/critical reception at TIFF 2016 was pretty positive. Info on streaming availability here: http://www.ifcfilms.com/films/the-autopsy-of-jane-doe Kinda pricey because it's a pretty recent release but I don't think it's got any theatre distribution really.

This is a grody movie with a neat vibe. Nothing earth shattering but if you can stomach extensive clinical gore I can recommend it

Well the last third is kinda dumb in the way a lot of horror movies are where they leave behind suspense/paranoia and become overly literal.

It's kinda fun but I think at the moment it's a bit too expensive to rent since it's new. Maybe in October it would be fun to throw in if you're someone who likes to watch hella thrillers and stuff for Shocktober

First half was ok, second half has kinda lost me.

Yeah it was cooler when it was just a strange corpse and not like demonic bullcrap.
