Wonderful character development!

People are voting emotionally.
This is ultimately a movie about the very bad things that can happen when we don't address our unease, when we just try to brush it off, whether that's to fit in or to preserve our self-image.
View More***Spoilers Ahead*** Abandoned Dead started off GREAT & had my full attention.It was GOOD & CREEPY.The long, dark hallway, the hospital equipment moving by itself, the stuffed doll come to life, the creepy caretaker, somebody or something calling out the security guards name, etc, etc, etc. Even the pizza guy was a creep.I was on the edge of my seat until the scene where the security guard went into the room that had the corpse laying there, looking like she once was wearing a sleeping mask that somebody used as a stencil, cut around it & removed the skin.After this, I got a feeling the movie was going downhill & it did.It took a straight nosedive from there.It's like somebody hit a switch & it went from GREAT to garbage, it went from being a Horror flick to....... I don't even know what to call it.If they would've kept the story going about the creeped out security guard rather than switching to a hypnotized mental patient, Abandoned Dead would've been perfect.Another thing I really liked about the movie was that it was set in an addiction clinic (1st time I've ever seen that) Every movie I've seen where a security guard is watching over a building overnight, it's set in a mental hospital, hospital or a huge building.Maybe that's what made it so scary as well, it wasn't set in a HUGE building.Abandoned Dead started off with GREAT potential.The 1st half was awesome but the 2nd half completely falls apart so I wouldn't recommend anybody go see it unless you want to be disappointed like I was (HUGE, HUGE, HUGE disappointment) 1 star just for the 1st half of the movie
View More"Abandoned Dead" is a movie about a security guard who takes the night shift at an addiction center. It is a psychological thriller that is about more than what it seems to be and had a real M. Night Shyamalan feel in almost every scene. The film itself isn't too scary but certain scenes might be triggering to some people. It also wasn't too gory but, like I said, some scenes might be triggering to some people. Rachel Burke, played by Sarah Nicklin, is a security guard who never takes the night shift due to a secret that you will later find out near the end of the film. She gets roped into taking the night shift by her boss because no one else was able to take the job. She starts out doing her job like any normal shift but begins to realize that there is more to it than meets the eye. I absolutely loved the actress portraying this role. She did an excellent job and is a very attractive woman. I think she is the only reason this movie did decently well according to most people. This movie isn't a very long film but it starts to feel that way after awhile. It is intense and will have you on the edge of your seat wondering what that surprise ending will be and what else could possibly happen to the main character. There was one scene that completely freaked me out but only because I have a fear of dolls coming to life and doing creepy things to people. It could have been better but I really did enjoy this movie.

View MoreAbandoned Dead is a suspense thriller that revolves around the chilling incidents experienced by a female security guard Rachael Burke in Mayfield Addiction Clinic. Movie starts with Rachael talking to her girlfriend Sara on a phone call while driving home. At first Abandoned Dead seems like every other ordinary movie but things really start to speed up once Rachael reaches the Addiction clinic she is supposed to watch over for the night. The fact that Rachael suffers from the fear of night makes the movie even more interesting.Mayfield Addiction Clinic seems like every other average clinic but once Rachael is left alone in the place, the clinic turns into the spookiest place on the earth. The first heart-stopping moment arrives when Rachael is sitting in her car outside the clinic gazing at the clinic board and Anna suddenly knocks on her car window.Chilling and intense story twists will keep you hooked towards Abandoned Dead till the very end. Although the movie is extremely startling and terrifies audiences in the most unexpected way still there are various points that will keep you confused till the end. For instance, the fact that why Rachael dreaded nighttime unravels when the audiences get to know about the trauma she suffered in her childhood.Things start to get really mysterious once night gets deeper. Rachael encounters the hidden secrets of her childhood wrapped in the evil attacks of the supernatural forces. Every time Rachael opens the door of the clinic gives you a mild heart attack because of the horrifying environment surrounding the clinic. The most gut- wrenching scene in the movie is where Rachael finds a dead and skinned cat on the doorstep of the clinic.Her encounter with a mysterious and rough looking guard is also quite interesting. Amongst the entire thrill, Abandoned Dead also presents you with a drop of humor. Facial expressions delivered by Rachael during the scene where a pizza delivery guy proposes her to have sex with him are truly amusing. At first, all the scenes with the detective seem extremely boring but after the movie unravels, Detective Phillip Haggis starts to make sense.The movie flows at an extremely fast pace and keeps you hooked till the end. Due to its creepy story-line and heart-stopping sound effects, Abandoned Dead is definitely not fit for heart patients.
