MY GOODNESS!!! Phew… at least I finally got that one out of my system. Obviously, this film is not for the faint-hearted. Seriously. Take my advice… if you're like a medical student or in a health-allied course or field and you happened to be lured to this film because of its, shall I say, "inviting" (not to mention "misleading") title then don't say I didn't warn you!

This film is definitely not for everyone's consumption. It should be like Rated R+++ or something. I mean… it's not the usual sex-and-violence kind of film. This one's got a real plot which would really leave an impression or compel you to dig deep into your grey matter or even pull you out of your comfortable state. It's not something that you would watch to unwind.

Or perhaps it's just me… some people could be so desensitized already to the point that they won't be affected by most of the scenes that I'm referring to. Hey, I wouldn't want myself to get desensitized. The movie portrays how evil the nature of man truly is. It depicts his fallen nature which so easily gives in to its carnal desires and cravings. I think any person who watches the movie without cringing or at least batting an eyelash is no longer human. Or is at least so numb to the point that he loses the propensity to react to such… sadistic or inhuman acts.

I know I'm just ranting or raving like some deranged viewer but the movie evoked such emotion in me that I couldn't help but blog about it. I really need to just get it out of my system. It's like some sort of a therapy for me. After the initial shock comes this. Haha. Okay, perhaps I need to get a grip now.

Anyway, I'm not going to spoil the "fun" of some aspiring viewers by revealing important details and every peculiar stuff that I've seen in the movie including the really disturbing ones. But just to give you a heads up, the film is some sort of a thriller with medical bits here and there and yes, the main characters are pathologists. So expect lots and lots of scenes with corpses or dead bodies. Incidentally though, the leading character was portrayed by the actor from Heroes' Peter Petrelli... looking good as ever.

Of course, there's a little bit of love story interspersed in the plot but that's beside the point. It's still gory and there's action and a lot of blood minus the usual weapon such as guns and the like. Also, it's not your usual case of psycho killers because as much as I hate to admit it, the acts done were the meticulously planned and borderline genius. Knowledge is indeed scary when it falls into the wrong hands.

So much for "watching a movie to unwind". Sheesh! Now I need to watch another movie to "unwind" from this movie. Haha! Seriously, if you plan to watch it or have already seen it… please, just make sure it doesn't change your outlook on doctors. They are still human after all, subject to temptations and this movie ought to remind us that man is indeed evil by nature. I believe man can never get out of his evil system unless he is redeemed by someone whose nature is exactly the opposite: good, pleasing and perfect.

If you want to challenge it or talk about it, I am open to a friendly discussion. Thanks for "hearing me out"!
