He did not name the main character of this psychological thriller, a man - played hip hop artist Method Man - whose existence is concentrated around the city morgue where he works with dedication absolute. The reassembling of remains, more than a profession, it seems to be the man a kind of vocation, a mission outside of the hard working hours through the embalming of animals. It is the dead matter that affects mainly men is no accident that his refrigerator fills up quickly with dead animals found on the street. Symbol of an individual who crosses the reality without entering into contact, the appearance of mortician is characterized by an order manic (God knows how to get out an autopsy with the immaculate shirt), a timeless look (bowler coat and camel). The contrast between the human figure (a figure almost abstract and intangible) and the reality that surrounds him (savagely devastated by crime and poverty) could not be more stark.
elements aimed at creating the plot that will lead to the dissolution of the block's emotional mortician will be a tattoo found on the body of a young woman, an assistant lazy (actually a young thug on parole) and a child will try earnestly to get inside the morgue.
I found very interesting and rather well-defined figure of the protagonist and I think that the plot unfolds in an appropriate manner by offering twists to the right point. However it seems to me that the film suffers from a sort of swing style and the fact that it is shot in 3D complicates things. The British director Gareth Maxwell Roberts sketches a scenario in early Gothic style then try to record reality with ruthless realism, indulges in particular pulp and yet disdains almost comic accents. Far from directly involve the viewer, almost physically bringing it closer to the characters, the intentions of the director, the 3D images with a sense of unreality, drag at times in a setting that does so much cartoon. Among exaggerated details - especially when the mortician is at work - and overflown details - especially in the finale - the film, although not to stand among the best in competition at the Berlinale this year, is not devoid of original features. If nothing else, requires a reflection on the meaning and use of 3D technology.
