The Morgue is a 2008 horror movie that centers around a young medical student named Edward who starts working at a local morgue to gain experience in his field. He is a quiet and reserved individual who tends to keep to himself. Edward is introduced to a seasoned morgue attendant named Montgomery, played by Bill Cobbs, who is close to retirement.

Edward soon realizes that Montgomery operates differently from his previous colleagues, as he insists on speaking to the corpses as if they are alive. Edward becomes increasingly concerned, especially when Montgomery speaks of a particular corpse, Jane Doe, who was murdered a few years ago and remains an unsolved case. Montgomery is convinced that Jane Doe's spirit can help him solve the case.

As Edward continues to work in the morgue, he becomes witness to strange occurrences that suggest that something supernatural is happening. The cold storage doors keep opening by themselves, and Edward sees shadows moving on the walls, as well as a strange figure walking down the aisles at night.

As the story progresses, Montgomery and Edward start to unravel the mystery behind Jane Doe's murder. They reach out to her sister, who is still grappling with the loss and suffering from grief. Through their investigation, they uncover dark secrets surrounding Jane Doe's murder, and in turn, expose the hidden secrets of the small town they live in.

As tensions run high, strange things begin to happen around them, and they realize that they are not alone. Edward senses that something is wrong and becomes determined to get to the bottom of the mystery. But, as he tries to find answers, he starts to question his own sanity.

The climax of the movie is intense and fast-paced, as the supernatural occurrences grow more frequent and the mystery of Jane Doe's murder comes to a head. There are twists and turns that lead to a surprise ending that will keep viewers on the edge of their seats until the final credits.

The movie's cast includes skilled actors and actresses, such as Bill Cobbs, Lisa Crilley, Chris Devlin, and Heather Donahue, who bring life to their respective roles. The eerie atmosphere of the morgue, combined with the haunting background music, makes for a chilling viewing experience that will stay with viewers long after the movie has ended.

Overall, The Morgue is an effectively creepy horror movie that immerses the viewer in a story that is equal parts supernatural and suspenseful. Fans of the genre will appreciate the well-crafted storyline, excellent acting, and the atmosphere of the morgue itself, which is as much a character in the movie as any of the human actors.

The Morgue is a 2008 horror movie with a runtime of 1 hour and 24 minutes. It has received mostly poor reviews from critics and viewers, who have given it an IMDb score of 3.0.
