Attempting to battle a cancer diagnosis, a woman's visit to a sketchy doctor for an experimental treatment causes her to drift away from her boyfriend, and when he finds himself involved in a series of murders around town has to solve the connection between them to save her.
This wasn't too bad of a genre effort but has a few drawbacks. The initial setup here is worthwhile enough, getting an idea of their relationship being strained by her condition and work issues while also meeting the experimental doctor with his treatments that turn out far more devious than expected. This leads to several intriguing storylines involving the miraculous recovery from her treatments and her subsequent escape into the underground, the murder mystery involving the co-worker, and the race to uncover the exploits of the doctor at the center. That ends up leading into the one issue with this one where, because it's so short and has so much going on, a lot of the horror here gets neutered. While the attacks are bloody enough and have some fine cheesy effects present, there's barely enough of them here with the film opting for a detective angle investigating everything rather than the idea of the flesh-eating women being involved. As this isn't all that logically carried out due to a series of cliches involving skepticism, ignoring clear evidence and failing to follow through on ideas makes it more problematic leading to its issues.
Rated Unrated/R: Graphic Violence, Graphic Language, and Nudity.
