Lack of good storyline.

Good concept, poorly executed.

Far from Perfect, Far from Terrible

This film is so real. It treats its characters with so much care and sensitivity.

I was in the mood for a scary movie and I found this movie on Netflix. I really would like to save you time, so just read the title and do not watch this movie unless you want to be bored to death for 82 minutes.The acting, directing, story line... Everything is just awful. I understand the hard work and respect people who are trying to create something with a very low budget, but this project is just plain wrong.It is full of plot holes, bad acting, bad dialog and the lame ending is the biggest slap to the audience's face. Nothing is bothered to be explained by the director and everything is left for our imagination. However, nothing was provided to begin with so when the credits roll, you end up with a confused look and say "what the...did I just watch?"I am wondering where the director found these two actors from (the interrogator lady and Brennan.) Brennan is not only bad in acting, he also just over acts in most of his scenes, which makes him the most obnoxious character i have ever watched. The other lady is just not right for this role. She has no emotion, no mimics, and she definitely cannot reflect the weight of her role on to the screen. The other guys in cheap suits also looked like imposers rather than actual agents. Most directors disregard this fact and try to make the next Blair Witch and/or Cloverfield. Yes, it is a lot cheaper to make a hand held footage movie however, it requires sub par acting to pull it off. If the acting and the story is bad, then the film falls flat on its face. Because you are playing straight to a digital camera with limited light work, so there's really nothing to hide here. Overall, this is one of the worst low budget movies I have watched. Sometimes a great story can make up for the bad acting or visa versa. This movie lacks both.1/10 Awful

Not with standing the building they are using could not have closed in 1949, it too 1990's looking, the cell block for sure is too new for the forty's . the ending is just preposterous . Nice of whom ever found the "found footage" to edit all the film. Just a rip off of other films , nothing new here. And the plot ,.well it's bad. There's too many cameras , and how did they get there in a building closed for 60years . Where's all the pigeons ? Rats and other pests that thrive in old buildings,. Where's the years of dirt? Action starts way too far in the movie about an hour,. The so called cop interviews , lose perspective after the end is seen. Why the interview ? Why put blame on him, it's what's inside that your hiding you know this from the start.

First off I have to say that I love the whole "found footage" ghost in the corner right behind you thing. It totally rocks...when it's done right... this is not I repeat not done right. It's just cheese and not good cheese like nacho cheese but bad cheese like moldy government cheese. This movie takes almost an hr of it's 1hr 22 min run time to set the spooky stuff up and then 10 min of laughingly bad f/x to scare us and then slaps on a government conspiracy in the final ending that just leaves the viewer rubbing his head asking why did I waste time watching this. do yourself a favor and stay away from this pile of smelly garbage.

This is not by any means the worst movie I've ever seen. There are worse movies with higher ratings. Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying it was good. The premise is that a group of kids are looking for paranormal activity at the Odenbrook Sanitarium as part of a psychology project. It starts off with the only survivor of the ordeal (John) being interrogated by some woman in a hospital room. Together, they watch the tapes filmed by John's dead friends (apparently already edited by the cops), who became thoroughly unlikeable for me when they preformed the "Odenbrook dance" and made bad puns about ten minutes in. John, who is the "tech-head" of the group, helpfully informed them that they could conserve battery power by turning things off. Fortunately he leaves the group early; he and Tess planned on pranking the others later in the night. So, he came up with an excuse to leave, planning on meeting Tess back in the asylum later in the night. Naturally, he chains the only exit shut when he leaves.The rest of the movie follows the group doing investigations, occasionally interrupted by scenes of police questioning. From this point the movie is not slow, but it's not exactly entertaining. It's standard Paranormal Activity fare -- that is, doors slamming and EVP's, with some actual ghosts showing up. Of course, every "scary" scene is followed by the camera person freaking out, and giving us camera work that makes it look like they're an epileptic having a stroke. The first death is about an hour into the movie, and the rest follow quickly.At this point, I was wondering why John was even under police scrutiny. Each death is clearly filmed on camera, and he's nowhere to be found. The second person to die was killed by something invisible, and then a ghost flickered into existence and kissed his body. The woman then paused the video and continued to question John, still asking if he killed them.The ending was a doozy. It was, in my opinion, the worst part of the movie. It was a twist that was stupid, and, quite frankly, confusing. So, yes, this was a bad movie, but it was nothing compared to Troll 2 or Manos. However, if you like SyFy original movies, you'll enjoy the ride.
