Description
Aftermath: A woman dies tragically in an automobile accident but the true horror awaits her after death. What happens to the body after the spirit has moved on and the corpse is at the mercy of those who manhandle the dead? What manner of creature is it that tears our bodies apart only to put them back together again? Whether we like it or not, we are all at the mercy of the coroners knife and the abuse and indignities we suffer are strictly up to him. Genesis: A sculptor is traumatized by the death of his wife in a car accident. He builds a sculpture in her memory. As the lifelike sculpture begins to bleed through the cracks of clay, the sculptor's flesh mutates and crumbles away.

Worth every penny for Aftermath alone.......2007-06-18

If you appreciate purely gore films then Aftermath is for you!!! I keep reading reviews that "it is too predictable" or "it wasn't long enough" but gore does not need length to be effective, and as far as being predictable, Amazon spells out the whole 30 minutes for you in the plot summary. These people are most likely not into just pure gore. There is no dialogue just a classical score and it worked perfectly. Plenty of gore to go around in this 30 minute blood bath. What better setting for a gore film than a coroner's lab? My only problem with the film is that the necrophilia scene in my opinion could have been more explicit. If you enjoy such quality film making as the the Guinea Pig Collection (the gorier films such as Flower of Flesh and Blood, Mermaid in a Manhole, etc.) then this film is for you.
Genesis was intersting, the Awakening was simply put, a student film, but I purchased this for Aftermath alone.

I often hear people praise Aftermath for it's inovation and originality. I just can't see it. Yes the makeup is pretty good for it's budget and for that I'll give the devil his due but the movie is just plan tasteless and sickening. you are probably thinking. "Well it's tasteless and sickening. perfect qualities for a horror film!" yes and no. I agree that a horror movie should make your skin crawl and make you feel uncomforable, but aftermath is a film depicting perverse violence against women. Not really something that I get my jollies watching. The whole film is about a mortician who uses his subjects as sex toys and violates them with surgical tools. When he's gone he cuts them up and feed them to his dog. End cut release. End of film. no dialog just a barebones plot and very discusing imagery. I lover horror flicks but this just went too far and it did it in a very non graceful manner. More of a nuff film than a horror flick. If you like seeing women violated and humiluated that this is your movie. otherwise give it a pass.

Well what can I say?Nacho Cerda's only reason to make this is to shock and offend and he pulls it off great.The only thing I would complain about would be the length.Worth the money if you're a gore-hound like me.

Despite the gore, these films are boring..........2006-11-23

I was looking forward to these films after hearing so much about them. My advice is not to waste your time. Luckily, they are only 30 minutes apiece. There is a student film on here called The Awakening, but I was so bored and disappointed by the first two films I skipped it. Aftermath is the film that most people talk about. It starts out well, with some good atmosphere and excellent camera work, but then goes downhill from there. It's actually very boring, despite the intense gore. It's rather predictable that the morgue attendant would be a necrophiliac. Nacho Cerda, the filmmaker, just went out of his way to shock people. I have seen tons of "hardcore" cinema, and this stuff didn't bother me. There was no real soul or art to the film, which makes it just an exercise in style, and a rather tedious one at that. If you want to see an artistic film about a morgue, watch Stan Brakhage's The Act of Seeing With One's Own Eyes. Brakhage films actual autopsies, and there is a strange, mystical, even spiritual quality to Brakhage's film. That is nowhere to be found here. The other film, Genesis, doesn't fare much better. Genesis starts out to be another exercise in style, with some really obvious acting by the lead actor. There are several lame dream sequences here, and it gets pretty dull very fast. The ending isn't too bad, but the first 25 minutes or so of Genesis are just an ordeal to sit through. A rather disappointing evening.
