Anatomy (2000)
"How corny."

Those words sum up my thoughts on the movie. I saw the ratings for Anatomy and noticed that they were rather high. Therefore, I expected a fairly good attempt at foreign horror. I was extremely displeased. Germany takes on the teen horror genre and doesn't do it any justice, not that many movies do. It's basically med school Scream, but not done half as good (and I'm no lover of Scream). I don't know if the dubbing made the acting look horrible, or if the acting just was horrible. I hated every character to boot. The storyline is also pretty pitiful to say the least. A secret medical society dissects and studies people while they're still alive because they can somehow preserve the bodies better that way. I guess. I think it's a load of crap myself. There was one short sequence that I loved. It involves a young man waking up, disoriented, and finding himself sliced open with people removing his organs. It's everyone's worst nightmare. Even so, it's still just another bad slasher movie.
