Trivia
The American death metal band Autopsy decided to name their group after the film because of how much they liked it. According to the band's frontman, Chris Reifert, it is one of his all-time favorite horror movies.

Goofs
When Simona raises her hands to push off an overamorous apparition, when it disappears, her hands are higher than they should be, relative to where they had been pushing off the incorporeal corpse.

Quotes
Father Paul Lenox: I kill you, i've already killed a lot of people. You understand, YOU UNDERSTAND. I'll kill you too. I'll kill you, i'll kill you, i'll kill you, i'll kill you, i'll kill you.

Alternate versions
The version released by Anchor Bay is the complete and uncut 100-minute version, which restores over 15 minutes of footage that was deleted for the film's original American release.

Possibly the most confusing and strangest giallo ever made!

'Autopsy' is a very strange and confusing giallo that has to be seen to be believed! Newcomers to the genre best steer clear, but buffs will find this one totally fascinating. Mimsy Farmer (Fulci's 'The Black Cat') stars as an uptight doctor who between wrestling with freaky hallucinations of horny corpses(!) investigates a series of suicides supposedly caused by sunspots(!). A mysterious car racer turned priest (!) (Barry Primus of Scorsese's 'Boxcar Bertha') gets involved in the mystery, though she is unsure whether he is an ally or a suspect. Also in the cast is Ray Lovelock ('The Living Dead In Manchester Morgue') as Farmer's moody and cynical boyfriend. The brief plot synopsis doesn't give you any idea of just how convoluted and nutty this one is. Many will probably find it too flamboyant to stick with until the end, but personally I found it impossible to resist. Easily the most bizarre giallo I've ever seen!
