Dr. Jack McKee works as a successful surgeon at a prestigious hospital. He and his wife, Anne, have all the trappings of success, however, Jack works so long hours that he rarely sees their son and has become emotionally distant from his wife. His “bedside attitude” with his patients, many of whom are critically ill, is also inadequate. The atmosphere in the operating room is relaxed, and the banter between him and his partner, Dr. Murray Kaplan, is less than professional. (When a patient with a breast scar comments that her husband wants to know if it will fade, Jack responds that she could tell him that she is similar to a “Playboy centerfold because she has the staple marks to prove it.”)
Jack suffers a coughing episode on his way home from a charity function. When he coughs up blood all over her and the car, his wife is taken aback. During an examination, a sample of growth from Jack’s throat is removed. The biopsy reveals that the patient has cancer. His time in this evaluation with another cold, impersonal surgeon marks the beginning of his metamorphosis. Further tests and disappointments are interspersed with scenes of other patients’ grace and understanding for one another, as well as a much clearer view of their doctors’ and medical support personnel’s delays and blunders.
As Jack goes through life as a patient, he acquires a better grasp of the emotional void that hospitals, some doctors, and even his own colleagues can exhibit. June Ellis, a fellow cancer patient with an incurable brain tumor, becomes his friend. She convinces him that he would never lie or mislead a patient again. Jack starts barking at the medical establishment. Jack and June set out to witness a Native American performance, but the pace is too fast for her. Meanwhile, his wife is perplexed by Jack’s relationship with June.
Cancer on Jack’s vocal cords is not cured by radiation therapy. His despair culminates in a confrontation with Dr. Leslie Abbott, the surgeon who is treating him and whom he provokes in a violent debate. Dr. Eli Bloomfield, a doctor he has previously mocked, agrees to perform the necessary operation for Jack. “Well, Jack, I’ve always wanted to slice your throat, and now I’ve had the chance,” Eli says with a smile after Jack apologizes for his and Murray’s rude actions. Eli’s bedside demeanor is an excellent model for Jack. Cancer on Jack’s vocal cords is not cured by radiation therapy.

When he returns to work, he begins teaching incoming medical interns the value of displaying compassion and sensitivity to their patients, which will help them become better doctors. Jack dresses the interns in patient gowns, assigns them various ailments, and orders all of the tests so that they can “feel” the experience that their patients will soon be subjected to. This movie is a must-watch for every medical student.

* 3. RE-ANIMATOR
Herbert West resurrects his deceased professor, Dr. Hans Gruber, at the University of Zurich Institute of Medicine in Switzerland. However, there are horrifying side consequences; as West illustrates, the dosage was too high. When accused of murdering Gruber, West responds, “I gave him life!”. West attends Miskatonic University in Arkham, Massachusetts, to continue his education as a medical student. He takes a room from fellow medical student Dan Cain and turns the basement of the house into his personal laboratory. West shows Dan his
reanimating reagent by reviving Dan’s deceased pet, Rufus. Megan Halsey, Dan’s fiancée and the dean’s daughter at the medical school, walks in on the experiment and is appalled. Dan tries to tell the dean about West’s accomplishment in resurrecting the dead cat, but the dean is skeptical. When Dan insists, the dean suggests that Dan and West are insane. West and Dan are barred from attending school, so they sneak into the morgue to test the reagent on a human subject in an attempt to establish that the reagent works and therefore saves their medical careers. The corpse they inject reanimates but in a frenzied and violent zombie-like form. Dr. Halsey happens upon the scene and is killed by the reanimated body, which West then kills with a bone saw. West injects Dr. Halsey’s body with his reanimating reagent, ecstatic at the prospect of dealing with a freshly dead specimen. Dr. Halsey resurfaces, likewise in a zombie-like state. Megan stumbles into the incident and bursts out laughing. Dan collapses in disbelief. Dr. Carl Hill, a professor, and researcher at the hospital takes responsibility for Dr. Halsey and places him in a padded observation cell adjacent to his office. He performs a medical procedure on him, lobotomizing him. During the procedure, he realizes that Dr. Halsey is not sick, but rather dead and reanimated. Dr. Hill goes to West’s basement lab and blackmails him into handing over his reagent and notes in order to claim credit for West’s discovery. West offers to demonstrate the reagent by smearing a few drops of it onto a microscope slide containing dead cat tissue. As Dr. Hill examines this slide under the microscope, West clobbers him from behind with a shovel and then decapitates him with it. Dr. Hill’s head and body are then reanimated separately by West. Dr. Hill’s body creeps up behind West and knocks him unconscious while he is questioning his brain and taking notes. The body transports the head back to Dr. Hill’s office, accompanied by West’s reagent and notes. After doing brain surgery on other reanimated corpses, Dr. Hill gains the capacity to control them telepathically in his re-animated state. He then orders Dr. Halsey to seize Megan from Dan. Megan passes out while being brought to the morgue by her reanimated father. Dr. Hill strips her naked and binds her comatose body to a table when she arrives. As Hill’s body and bloodied, severed head continue to sexually abuse her, she regains consciousness. Hill begins to place his head between Megan’s knees, but the presence of West and Dan prevents him from doing so. While Dan frees Megan, West distracts Dr. Hill. Dr. Hill explains that he has reanimated and lobotomized some morgue corpses, making them vulnerable to mind control. Halsey is However, Megan’s voice reawakens her father’s protectiveness, and he fights off the other corpses while Dan and Megan flee. During the following commotion, West injects a deadly overdose of the reagent into Dr. Hill’s body. Dr. Hill’s body swiftly mutates and assaults West, who cries to Dan to rescue his work before being dragged away by Dr. Hill’s hideous guts. Dan takes out the sack that contains West’s reagent and notes. One of the reanimated corpses attacks and strangles Megan as Dan and Megan exit the morgue. Dan rushes her to the hospital emergency room and attempts to resuscitate her, but she is already dead. He injects her with West’s reagent in desperation. Megan, who appears to have been awakened, can be heard screaming after the image fades to dark.

The 4077th Mobile Army Surgical Hospital in South Korea receives two new doctors, “Hawkeye” Pierce and “Duke” Forrest, who come in a stolen Army Jeep in 1951. They are disobedient, womanizing, rule-breakers, yet they quickly prove to be superb battle surgeons. Bumbling commanding officer Henry Blake, his hyper-competent chief clerk Radar O’Reilly, dentist Walter “Painless Pole” Waldowski, the unskilled and pretentious surgeon Frank Burns, and the meditative Chaplain Father Mulcahy are all already stationed at the camp. The camp’s principal characters are divided into two factions. Irritated by Frank’s religious zeal, Hawkeye and Duke convince Blake to relocate him to another tent so that freshly arrived chest physician Trapper John McIntyre can take up residence. After being drafted into the Army, the three doctors (dubbed “Swamp Man” after the nickname for their tent) have little regard for military tradition and are prone to pranks, womanizing, and excessive drinking. Frank is a strict military officer who expects everything to be done efficiently and by the book, as is Margaret Houlihan, the 4077th’s senior nurse. The two form an unspoken relationship over their respect for rules and begin a covert romance. The Swamp Man, with the assistance of Radar, smuggles a microphone into a tent where the couple is making love and broadcasting their passion over the camp’s PA system, which embarrasses them and earns Houlihan the moniker “Hot Lips.” The next morning, Hawkeye provokes Frank into beating him, causing the latter to be sent from the camp for psychiatric examination. Later, while Hot Lips is bathing, the Swamp Man plays a joke on her by ripping the tent sides off and revealing her naked body to settle a bet: Is she a natural blonde? Hot Lips is enraged, yelling at Blake, who is in bed with Lt. Leslie, that the 4077th is not a hospital, but a “crazy asylum,” and that it is all his responsibility.

The first third of the film is told from the main character, Jean-Dominique Bauby (Mathieu Amalric), or Jean-Do as his friends call him, first-person perspective. The film opens as Bauby wakes from his three-week coma in a hospital in Berck-sur-Mer, France. After an initial rather over-optimistic analysis from one doctor, a neurologist explains that he has locked-in syndrome, an extremely rare condition in which the patient is almost completely physically paralyzed, but remains mentally normal. At first, the viewer primarily hears Bauby’s “thoughts” (he thinks that he is speaking but no one hears him), which are inaccessible to the other characters (who are seen through his one functioning eye).
A speech therapist and physical therapist try to help Bauby become as functional as possible. Bauby cannot speak, but he develops a system of communication with his speech and language therapist by blinking his left eye as she reads a list of letters to laboriously spell out his messages, letter by letter.
Gradually, the film’s restricted point of view broadens out, and the viewer begins to see Bauby from “outside”, in addition to experiencing incidents from his past, including a visit to Lourdes. He also fantasizes, imagining beaches, mountains, the Empress Eugénie, and an erotic feast with one of his transcriptionists. It is revealed that Bauby had been editor of the popular French fashion magazine Elle, and that he had a deal to write a book (which was originally going to be based on The Count of Monte Cristo but from a female perspective). He decides that he will still write a book, using his slow and exhausting communication technique. A woman from the publishing house with which Bauby had the original book contract is brought in to take dictation.
The new book explains what it is like to now be him, trapped in his body, which he sees as being within an old-fashioned deep-sea diving suit with a brass helmet, which is called a scaphandre in French, as in the original title. Others around see his spirit, still alive, as a “Butterfly”.
The story of Bauby’s writing is juxtaposed with his recollections and regrets until his stroke. We see his three children, their mother (whom he never married), his mistress, his friends, and his father. He encounters people from his past whose lives bear similarities to his own “entrapment”: a friend who was kidnapped in Beirut and held in solitary confinement for four years, and his own 92-year-old father, who is confined to his own apartment because he is too frail to descend four flights of stairs.
Bauby eventually completes his memoir and hears the critics’ responses. He dies of pneumonia ten days after its publication. The closing credits are accentuated by reversed shots of breaking glacier ice (the forward versions are used in the opening credits), accompanied by the Joe Strummer & the Mescaleros song “Ramshackle Day Parade”.

The Lazarus Effect is a 2015 American supernatural horror film directed by David Gelb and written by Luke Dawson and Jeremy Slater. The film stars Mark Duplass, Olivia Wilde, Donald Glover, Evan Peters, and Sarah Bolger. The film was released on February 27, 2015, by Relativity Media. It received negative reviews from critics but was a box office success, grossing $38 million worldwide against a budget of $3 million
Frank Walton (Mark Duplass) and his fiancée, Zoe McConnell (Olivia Wilde), are medical researchers who have created a serum code-named “Lazarus.” It was designed to help coma sufferers, but it has been proved to be capable of resurrecting the dead.
They run a successful trial on a recently deceased dog with the help of their friends Niko (Donald Glover), Clay (Evan Peters), and cameraman Eva (Sarah Bolger). They do notice, however, that the dog exhibits some unique psychological and physical occurrences after being revived by the serum: cataracts previously present in its eyes rapidly vanish, it loses its appetite, and it exhibits a variety of other weird abilities. Tests show that the serum, rather than evaporating, is concentrated within the dog’s brain, where it is causing new problems.
Their endeavor is halted when the head of their university learns about their underground experimentation. They are also notified that the business that financed their research has been purchased by a prominent pharmaceutical corporation. Everything related to the project is seized by the company and its attorneys. Frank and his colleagues sneak back into their lab to replicate the experiment in order to demonstrate that they invented the serum. Things go tragically wrong with this effort when Zoe is fatally electrocuted. Frank, unable to let her go, uses the serum to resuscitate her. The treatment looks to be a success at first, but the crew quickly recognizes that something is wrong with Zoe. She maintains that when she died, she went to her interpretation of Hell. This was a childhood nightmare: she observed trapped neighbors burning to death during a fire in her apartment building. As the drug begins to take effect, she begins to exhibit remarkable telepathic powers.
The substance allows brains to “evolve” extremely quickly, bestowing Zoe with superhuman abilities like telekinesis and telepathy. It also leads to greater rage and insanity. Eva is ultimately found by Zoe, who returns her to the Hell she went to when she died. Inside the nightmare, it is revealed that Zoe was the one who started the fire in the building, condemning her to Hell when she dies. Niko enters a room and is taken aback by Zoe. She utilizes telekinesis to throw him into a locker and crush it with him inside, killing him. She uses her new abilities to turn off the power to the entire lab. When Clay asks where Niko is, she kills him as well. By squeezing an e-cigarette down his throat and choking him to death Later, Zoe assassinates Frank as he tries to inject her with poison. Zoe then injects herself with the entire bag of serum, which boosts her skills. Eva, who is still alive and attempting to locate Zoe in order to inject her, is in the dark. Zoe eventually finds Eva, who appears to be able to escape and inject Zoe with the syringe, but this is an illusion; Zoe then murders Eva. She then injects Frank with her own serum-saturated blood, successfully resurrecting him.

In 1969, Hunter “Patch” Adams is suicidal and admits himself to a mental institution. Once there, he finds that using humor, rather than doctor-centered psychotherapy, better help his fellow patients and provides him with a new purpose in life. Because of this, he wants to become a medical doctor, and two years later enrolls at the Medical College of Virginia (now known as VCU School of Medicine) as the oldest first-year student. He questions the school’s soulless approach to medical care, particularly why students don’t work with patients until their third year, as well as the methods of the school’s Dean Walcott, who takes an instant dislike to Patch and believes that doctors must treat patients his way and not befriend them. Because of this and incidents such as setting up a giant model paper-mâché pair of legs in stirrups during an obstetric conference, he is expelled from the medical school, although he is later reinstated when it becomes apparent to the school that his unconventional methods often improve his patient’s health. Adams encourages medical students to work closely with nurses, learn interviewing skills early, and argues that death should be treated with dignity and sometimes even humor.
Patch begins a friendship with fellow student Carin Fisher and, during their third year as medical students develop his idea for a medical clinic built around his philosophy of treating patients using humor and compassion. With the help of Arthur Mendelson, a wealthy man who was a patient whom Patch met while in the mental hospital, he purchases 105 acres (42 hectares) in West Virginia to construct the future Gesundheit! Institute. Together with Carin, medical student Truman Schiff, and some old friends, he renovates an old cottage into a clinic. When they get the clinic running, they treat patients without medical insurance and perform comedy sketches for them.
Patch’s friendship with Carin soon turns into romance. When she tells him that she had been molested as a child, Patch comforts her and reassures her that she can overcome her pain by helping others. Encouraged, Carin wants to help a disturbed patient, Lawrence “Larry” Silver. However, Larry murders Carin and then commits suicide. The patch is guilt-ridden by Carin’s death and begins to question the goodness in humanity. Standing on a cliff, he contemplates suicide again and asks God for an explanation. He then sees a butterfly that reminds him that Carin had always wished she was a caterpillar that could turn into a butterfly and fly away. The butterfly lands on his medical bag and shirt before flying away. With his spirits revived, Patch decides to dedicate his work to her memory.
Walcott eventually discovers that Patch has been running a clinic and practicing medicine without a license and attempts to expel him again because of this, as well as complaints that he has made his patients uncomfortable (which is obviously not true). Desperate to prove Walcott wrong, Patch files a grievance with the state medical board on the advice of his former medical school roommate, conservative Mitch Roman. Patch succeeds in convincing the board that he must treat the spirit as well as the body. The board, although they still find some of his methods questionable, allows him to graduate and he receives a standing ovation from the packed hearing room.
At graduation, Patch receives his diploma and, bowing to the professors and audience, reveals himself to be naked underneath his gown.
