Right to Die (2007)
*** (out of 4)
Pretty good Masters of Horror entry about a husband (Martin Donovan) who cheats on his wife (Julie Anderson). Later that night they get in a car wreck and the wife is burned 100% over her body and the husband agrees that his wife wouldn't want to be kept alive. However, the girl's mother starts a legal battle to keep her alive so every time the woman dies she is brought back. By doing this, her spirit gets irritated and every time she's brought back, the spirit comes back to haunt the husband. It would seem there would be all sorts of political jabs in this but thankfully director Rob Schmidt keeps that out and instead goes for the horror. There's some pretty gory moments including one scene where they give the burned wife a bath. The revenge segment is pretty good and the performances are better than average.
