Medical students training in Pathology use their knowledge to play a deadly game; committing the perfect murder and having the others trying to work out how it was done. A bit like real life Cluedo but with more sex, drugs and...gore. Ted Grey is the lead character, who comes into the film a sensible high achieving med student, with a gorgeous yet sweet fiancé, whose Dad also happens to be hugely rich and able to offer Ted a job when he qualifies. Whilst there is a little bit of backstory to the Ted character, all this, and any common sense or general plausibility is abandoned within the first part of the film. He goes from being horrified and disgusted about ...  Read the complete review

Note: review was written for my film review website, ShaunMunro.co.uk, thanks! ~~~ The opening scene of Marc Schoelermann's Pathology evidently sets the tone for the film's 92 remaining minutes - a pantomime acted by cadavers is juxtaposed with a reminder of the Hippocratic oath, in a grisly thriller best described as a cross between Flatliners and Saw.

However, the leader of the pack, Dr. Jake Gallo (Michael Weston), soon ensnares him ...  Read the complete review

Directed by Marc Schoelermann 'Pathology' is a story that is not for the faint hearted. It is also not a very good film. I have reasons so bear with me. I will also try to be fair. The story goes as such; Milo Ventimiglia (of Heroes fame) plays Dr. Ted Grey, a medical student who is top of his class, meaning he can figure out how people died. When no-one else can. Moving away from his fiancé to study, he very quickly becomes involved in a deadly game where about five other students take it in turns to kill people then the others have to figure out exactly how this was executed. Without spoiling it for people, things inevitably get out of hand as the ...  Read the complete review

Well i must say Pathology is a difficult movie to review, its quite hard to explain, not that the movie is difficult to understand yet theres something about it. First of all i would describe this movie as a fusion between Saw and Fight Club. So kinda like a Saw Club which is a place where they kill in different ways. However for those thinking its a fusion of two great movies think again. Pathology is about the doctors who disect bodies after they are deceased and try to figure out what the cause of death was. The movie begins with the longer term doctors shunning the high flying new boy, Ted Grey who seems to have all the answers ...  Read the complete review
