While investigating the murder of a family, a sheriff is puzzled by the discovery of a body buried in the basement. He brings the preserved corpse of “Jane Doe” to the coroner, Tommy Tilden (Brian Cox), and requests to have answers by morning. Tommy’s son and assistant, Austin (Emile Hirsch), stays to assist his father in the autopsy. During the stormy night, father and son uncover weird and creepy secrets they never would have anticipated.
The Autopsy of Jane Doe (2016) is one of those small films that you cannot help but root for. With an excellent cast, a slightly underdeveloped script, and masterful directing, it’s not a perfect movie, but well worth watching. Join us as we discuss the pros and cons of this unique film, its humble beginnings, and the further success of talented director Andre Ovredal. Listen as Johnny Has the Keys descends into the morgue where sinister secrets are revealed and that sound of footsteps dragging down dark, empty hallways may not be your imagination.
