Postmortem (released as Obit in the United Kingdom) is a 1998 American drama film directed by Albert Pyun and starring Charlie Sheen, Ivana MiliÃÂeviÃÂ and Michael Halsey. It was filmed in Glasgow, Scotland.
American criminal profiler and author James McGregor (Charlie Sheen), who is trying to escape his past by moving to Scotland, receives a fax of a stranger's obituary. The next day he is arrested and charged with the stranger's murder, forcing him to collaborate with the local authorities if he wants to clear himself and stop a serial killer.
The film was shot in Glasgow in 1997. At one point during production, Sheen demanded to visit Easterhouse, one of Glasgow's toughest areas at the time, to obtain drugs and asked for a gun to protect himself. It is suggested Sheen agreed to this film in an attempt to try more serious roles.
