About Unrest
Unrest is the brainchild of Jason Todd Ipson, MD, who is making his feature directorial debut with this project. For Unrest, Ipson, who attended USC-Cinema Television School and successfully crossed over from surgery to directing in 1999, has taken the familiar elements of the horror genre and combined them with his knowledge of the world of medical students to create an intelligent, stylish medical thriller that explores the issues around mortality and the separation of body and soul. Using a real hospital and morgue as its principal settings, Unrest tells the story of four medical students in a Gross Anatomy Lab that find themselves dealing with the vengeful spirit of one of the cadavers they have been assigned to dissect.
