Movie Reviews of Anatomy (Special Edition)
Movie Review: Preserved Forever As Anatomical Specimens At the University Of Horror
Summary: 5 Stars
"Anatomy" is an outstanding medical thriller that combines "Coma" with "House of Wax." A brilliant young med student Paula Henning (Franka Potente of "Run Lola Run" and "Creep") is accepted into the University of Heidelberg in Germany. On a train, she helps save the life of David, a terminally ill young man. At the university, Paula is on the verge of dissecting a corpse when she discovers to her horror that it belongs to David. Soon afterwards, her classmates begin disappearing. Her investigation leads her to the ancient Anti-Hippocrates Society and a vast conspiracy involving the medical world. She uncovers the terrifying secret behind the grotesque specimens that are displayed in the university's Anatomy Hall like circus sideshow freaks.
I watched the highly suspenseful "Anatomy" in it original German audio with English subtitles. (The English dubbing was horrible.) Potente gives an excellent, believable portrayal as the heroine who bravely searches for her missing friends. Her performance reminded me of Genevieve Bujold in "Coma." Paula is relentlessly chased through the university's labyrinth of classrooms by those who wish to silence her. There are several plot twists that are nice. It is difficult for her to know who to trust in a conspiracy that involves faculty as well as students. Paula even learns some diabolical secrets concerning her own connection with the Anti-Hippocrates Society.
This great DVD package has plenty of nice extras including a music video for the song "My Truth." It is sung by Anna Loos who also appears in the film as Gretchen, Paula`s oversexed roommate. The video is extremely sensual and erotic. It contains an attractive group of performers who dance and flex their brawny bodies.
If you enjoy medical thrillers, then you must see "Anatomy." Another excellent one to watch is "Hollow Man," starring Elizabeth Shue and Kevin Bacon as biomedical scientists who learn, too late, that humans who are made invisible become insane and deadly. If you are a fan of slasher flicks with a hospital setting, then you will like "Anatomy" along with "Visiting Hours," "Halloween II" and "Slaughter Hotel."
