Implausible thriller, 2 January 2000
1/10
Author: Megamac from USA

Postmortem is highly implausible as a direct to video release. If Sheen wants to be taken seriously as an actor, he should take acting classes or, better yet, speech classes. This movie would have been great without Sheen, plus the writing should have been polished so that the audience or viewer (if there is one for this turkey) doesn't id'ed the killer/kidnapper/whomever. 1 out of ten
