Crank screenwriters Mark Neveldine & Brian Taylor take us into the wonderfully creepy world of autopsies in director Marc Schölermann's gruesome thriller Pathology.
The far-fetched premise goes like this: an elite group of pathology interns devise a game in which they murder people and get each other to guess how they each committed the crime. Once you get past the unrealistic notion of it all, you're left with a creepsome thriller that builds and builds on it's ickiness with delicate precision. Even when they're playing good guys, Milo Ventimiglia & Michael Weston are creepy, so it's nice to see them go all out. If the sound of a film that seems like a lost Clive Barker tale directed by David Cronenberg sounds like fun then this one might be for you.

Oh I like this movie.
Specially for scary Michael Weston. He play crazy guys so well.
You had me at Neveldine/Taylor. Definitely checking this one out.
There's a line between psychotic and asshole and imo Weston was firmly planted as the latter.
It's definitely a decent thriller, but I never got over how completely obnoxious the clique was.

They were very obnoxious. They weren't to be me thinks.
Like a Boiler Room/Wall Street for horror fans.
Weston's character had some character traits that weren't very admirable at all but I think that's the part of sociopath in him. He has no idea how the human mind or heart should work and never takes it into account. It's more a sickness rather than being an asshole.
I meant "The WERE meant to be."
:rolleyes:
