As others mentioned,which is true.. Wasn't bad or good,but until you get into discovering the coroner's evil side-business it was passable.
Unfortunately it starts falling apart with plot holes,clichés & eye roll moments.. Yes! It's a movie,but still something to be said about keeping it real.
It was cast & acting was average,as was the cinematography. Felt on the higher end,of low-budget or quality. This could of been so much better,it had actual potential. Maybe location,script,cast or director changes might of helped.
Is it worth seeing? Sure if you like,Tubi originals or any of the cast members.

I know you usually have to suspend some disbelief in horror and sci fi movies, but there are limits, and this movie strains credibility to the limit right out of the gate.
The main character's loser brother is involved in a robbery that goes wrong, and his partner is shot and killed. He realizes there's evidence on the guy's phone that will incriminate him (these are not the brightest bulbs). His sister, who is a medical student, comes up with a "brilliant" idea: she will take propofol to fake her own death, she'll get taken to the morgue, and steal the phone.
Of course, propofol won't do that. There's a good chance it will really kill you, like it did to Michael Jackson, but otherwise you'll be quite obviously alive. Even if they thought she was dead, she was somehow confident that she would be put somewhere where she could easily find the other guy and his phone, rather than, you know, in a drawer that she couldn't get out of. Like they say in the commercial, "When you're in a horror movie, you make bad choices. It's what you do."
Without giving away any spoilers, the "twist" is pretty obvious - and completely unbelievable.
On the other hand, the acting is pretty good, and if you check your brain at the door, it's reasonably entertaining to watch.

For the budget and premise this movie actually is pretty entertaining. Granted there are some pretty bad plot holes around character decisions and a few other things, but I found myself engaged( mostly from the increasing tension and acting.
The lead female does a fantastic job and is able to showcase her range here. I could see her leading a few bigger budget films soon.
The movie overall has some bad scenes (like the first scene) but don't let that put you off. Once it gets going it's pretty entertaining with some solid gore and a few minor twists. I think the production was well executed. I could see shudder or Amazon prime picking this up soon. 6.5/10.

It started out quite well, but then quickly turned into a cliche. There's absolutely nothing surprising or noteworthy, you can pretty much figure out the whole plot and even the twists within the first few minutes of the film.
Suspensewise, it was also quite predictable so honestly my heart rate never increased. I mean, compare to suspense from A Quiet Place or Don't Breathe, this film hardly creates a jitter. It is more of a gross type of film where you see a lot of blood, the cutting up of bodies, than it is about actual psychological thriller and even jump scare.
The only point that is noteworthy is the great performance by Jerry O'connell. The moment he came on the screen, you can feel his command of the movie. However, the most impressive of his performance was when he spoke; strong, articulate, and cerebral.
Overall a bore of a movie that you might share with some friends while eating pizza and stuff.
4/10.

OK I had pretty much guessed the story before hand, but watched anyway to see if it would be a bad acting or a surprise, I have to say on first starting off the w young lads actually had me engaged in their car with topics and play, the acting was solid from the young guy and mortician, unfortunately half way through it does start to feel flat cheesy and nit the best aesthetic settings. They do try to end it on a high note kinda when stories over give it that apocalyptic feel dusk till dawn. The end special effect in a certain scene was laughable but I went with it because it picked bk up. Our protagonist and antagonist carried this thin film with their acting abilities. Without them it would've been a failure. But will probably be good for first time horror watchers.

- WissenswertesBallie Madison spends the majority of the movie in bare feet.In order to prepare for the role,she took a page from Milia Jovovich book when she faced a similar situation in the film Million Dollar Hotel:she spend several weeks of her own time going barefoot everywhere.
- PatzerThe Coroner is much too rough with the organs he takes from Ross's body. If he intends to sell them, even on the black market, he wouldn't just reach into the body cavity and wrench and slice them out. Organ recovery is a very delicate process, and the slightest mistake can render the organ completely unusable.
