User Reviews

Not bad little shocker...

Middle of the road shocker that starts instantly and rolls along unfettered by common sense or reality. The inclusion of Robert Patrick and Jenette Goldstein only makes this film better. It actually moves along quite well and newcomer Jessica Lowndes does an exceptional job as her moment by moment confusion becomes fear becomes dread becomes terror and then becomes retaliation. As usual with movies of this sort, there's the "I'm the next victim" characters, the orderlies gone mad and all sorts of "this is bullsh*t" moments, but the ending makes up for some if not all of those.

Very high production values, very good photography, generally good acting across the board-- I doubt I'll watch it again, but if you haven't seen it, give it a view.
