Autopsy is a 1975 horror movie that focuses on a female candidate for surgeon named Simona Sana, played by Mimsy Farmer. Simona is set to graduate from medical school as a doctor and begins working at a hospital in Rome, Italy. She decides to take a night shift in the hospital's morgue for extra money, where she meets a mysterious mortician named Paul, played by Barry Primus. Paul is particularly fascinated with Simona and they begin a strange, twisted relationship.

Meanwhile, a strange string of murders is taking place in the city of Rome. Young women are being brutally murdered in grotesque ways, and the police are at a loss as to who is responsible. Paul becomes increasingly obsessed with the murders and begins to secretly bring Simona along as he performs autopsies on the victims. As he examines the bodies, he begins to experiment with different means of disposal for them, including dissolving them in acid or even feeding parts of them to his dogs.

As the murders continue, Simona gradually becomes more and more drawn into Paul's twisted world. She is fascinated by the macabre and the idea of death and becomes involved with Paul's experiments. But as she helps him dispose of the bodies, she begins to realize the true horror of what they are doing. Gradually, she begins to piece together clues about the identity of the killer and realizes that she may be in danger herself.

The movie is full of shocking images, including graphic depictions of autopsies and the disposal of bodies. The script is tense and atmospheric, as the audience is drawn deeper and deeper into the twisted world of Paul and Simona. The performances are strong across the board, with Mimsy Farmer in particular delivering a powerful portrayal of a woman on the brink of madness.

One of the most interesting things about Autopsy is its exploration of the link between sex and death. Paul is clearly aroused by the bodies of the dead women, and Simona is drawn to him in part by his obsession with death. The movie is often uncomfortable to watch, as it explores the darkest corners of human desire and behavior.

Overall, Autopsy is a chilling and unsettling horror movie that is sure to stick with viewers long after the credits roll. It is a terrifying exploration of the depths of human depravity, and a reminder that sometimes the most horrific monsters are the ones that live among us. If you're a fan of disturbing horror movies that push the boundaries of what's acceptable, Autopsy is definitely worth checking out.

Autopsy is a 1977 horror movie with a runtime of 1 hour and 39 minutes. It has received moderate reviews from critics and viewers, who have given it an IMDb score of 5.9.
