Highly Overrated But Still Good

Captivating movie !

Best movie ever!

If the ambition is to provide two hours of instantly forgettable, popcorn-munching escapism, it succeeds.

Absolute rubbish-no way does this story connect to anything resembling reality. Its a hotch potch of unfinished ideas and the most absurd plot line imaginable-the patients NOT injected are the ones who end up infected! Suddenly 5 people are shot and killed just like that. At the beginning the patients on the ward are cackling then suddenly they stop. There have been some great movies made with the mental home theme but this isn't one of them. I thought it can't be me-does anyone else understand this junk? Its either too damn clever for its own good -in which case its enough to give your brain a hernia-or perhaps its me who's mental.

I am almost 100% sure this movie was created from a videogame with the same name. If you are into video games and like the classic point-and-click adventure style, you're gonna love this one. Definitly you need to see both (the video game and the movie) before you can tell anything about the movie. Of course, the story is a little different, but it is the same thing. Actually the name of the main guy is the same: MAX. The plot seems to be a cliche, but as the real story reveals, you find out it is not such a thing! Forget about the low budget. This movie is awesome. The music is great and certain scenes make you believe you are really in a sanitarium. After all what could you expect from a movie with such title? Just what it has: Confusion, darkness, suspense and chills. This movie has it all, so, from my perpective, the movie reaches its goals. I am sure it was created not to be a big time but to create discussion, and leave you with a taste in your mouth. What taste? That depends on you...

The artwork on the box that this DVD came in was infinitely more entertaining than the film (using that term loosely) itself.I feel as though the creators of this film had a very good Stephen King type idea, but miserably failed at making it into a watchable movie.Great story. Poor acting and poor filming, perhaps due to a poor budget? Maybe someone out there will see this movie and re-create it to it's full potential...

I got this movie after reading a review on digitallyobssessed.com and I have to say I was plesantly suprised - a low budget horror film that actually had a brain - this is not your average teens in a wood horror film - a lot of care has gone into the construction of the story line and it really keeps you hooked to the end - there are some nice sfx and a great atomsphere and bizzarley an acting turn by Uri Geller. Further unlike most low budget films these days it was actually shot on film rather than dv so it doesn't look like someone's home movie! Well worth a look - especially if you're after something a little bit fresher and more stimulating than a masked killer slicing and dicing people. Great score also!
