I cannot think of one single thing that I would change about this film. The acting is incomparable, the directing deft, and the writing poignantly brilliant.

I didn’t really have many expectations going into the movie (good or bad), but I actually really enjoyed it. I really liked the characters and the banter between them.

Five teenagers check out an old abandoned asylum. They run across an obnoxious all-girl punk band. Of course, the stupid kids subsequently fall prey to vicious disfigured killer the Coroner (badly overplayed by Michael Rogan), who butchers the jerks in assorted gruesome ways with various autopsy tools. Directed with an appalling lack of skill and finesse by Richard Friedman, further marred by rank amateurish acting (future "Sex and the City" cable TV series regular Kristin Davis makes her inauspicious film debut as stuck-up bespectacled intellectual Jane, Ruth Collins snarls it up something awful as bitchy punk singer Tina, and Kenny L. Price grates on the nerves as insufferably nerdy baseball card buff Dennis), a generic hum'n'shiver synthesizer score by Dave Erlanger and Jonathan Stuart, lots of choice crummy dialogue (favorite line: "Your mom was a wonderful lady; if there's a heaven, then she's got a box seat"), laughably shoddy make-up f/x, groan-inducing attempts at witless spoofy humor (the wacko cracks these cheesy sub-Freddy Kruegerish one-liners every time he does the murderous deed), crude, unpolished cinematography by Larry Revene, and all the standard slasher clichés and stereotypes (the token black guy naturally buys the farm first), this gloriously ghastly low-budget atrocity commits all the right wrong stuff to rate highly as a real four-star stinkeroonie. Granted, the crumbling sanitarium location is genuinely cool and creepy, luscious "Penthouse" Pet Patty Mullen looks smoking hot in a two piece bikini, and ubiquitous 80's trash flick perennial Collins does her customary gratuitous topless scene, but overall this clunker is a special kind of lousy. A total cruddy hoot.

i love doom asylum. i enjoy the concept of the abandoned asylum, and the characters remind me of "return of the living dead". even though the blood in the slashing scenes is so thin that i found myself REALLY wondering about their budget, it's fun.it hits almost every slasher stereotype dead on. if it isn't a deliberate horror parody, it can certainly be viewed as such. great friday night viewing.

hey! it's slasher 80's fun, I agree with the guy that said that this is pure Friday entertainment, we have gore, a deformed killer, some hot chicks, and creepy settings. One thing that creeped me out, is the way this killer uses the instruments to kill,, it's so primitive! Don't be fooled by the box of the film, though it looks stupid, and the killer seems to be a joke, the movie is not that terrible. It's a baaaaaaaad movie, but after you watch you can say , that you can watching ANYTHING. Just recommended for true slasher fans!!!

a friend of mine rented this on a whim and we watched it thinking it would me MST3K quality schlock... but it's not... i think this is really the worst movie i've ever seen. no plot, horrible effects, just plain bad. interesting deaths, but with the 25 dollar budget, it just couldn't deliver. this movie was worse that April Fool's Day. i highly recommend that you never ever see this movie.
