Synopsis

He's played a terrifyingly mono-syllabic kidnapper and murderer, an eccentric drug dealer, and Satan at least once each, so it was only a matter of time for the well-trained Peter Stormare (Fargo, Bad Boys II, Constantine) to take on the role of Dr. Gianetti, the unhinged head physician of the Mid-Psych mental institution. When the punky Jack (Jesse Metcalfe, Desperate Housewives) discovers the patients of Mid-Psych--including his sister--are being subjected to experimentation and turned into vicious killers, it's up to him and his nervous-yet-trusty friend and sidekick (Kevin Sussman) to take care of business. This innovative and energetic directorial debut from Midnight Meat Train scribe Jeff Buhler combines gallows humour, a vivid cast of characters, lovingly crafted practical gore effects, and genuine terror to a sickening effect.

3.0 out of 5 stars Like gory zombie films? You might like this! 19 Dec 2008
By Miss K TOP 500 REVIEWER VINE™ VOICE
Format:DVD
This really captures blood-thirsty frenzied insanity well! Patients in an asylum are being experimented on like lab rats inadvertently leading to a bloody zombie-style phenomenon. Not the most original of storylines and lacking in any real substance but Jesse Metcalf proves himself to be a versatile and watchable actor. Plently of blood and gore so if that's your thing and you're a fan of the genre, you'll probably like this!

5.0 out of 5 stars Unfairly Harsh Reviews 19 Feb 2012
By marky77 VINE™ VOICE
Format:DVD
I was very surprised that this movie has such a low rating on here - it's actually very good!

Jesse Metcalfe fakes insanity in order to get commited into the same institution as his sister (who became severely depressed after their mother's death) so he can get her out.

However, things are not as they seem in the sanitarium and the patients are being subjected to..."experimental"...new medications...

I thought this movie did an excellent job of blending together so many different sub-genres of horror - with a fair bit of the psychological thriller. The acting and the plot pace were both great as was the suspence-to-gore ratio.

Ignore bad reviews, this movie deserves a chance and does not disappoint.

3.0 out of 5 stars No Awards but Its OK 21 Jan 2009
Format:DVD
The first half of the film is a bit slow but the second half really picks up with the good guys chased through the corridors (and ventilation shafts) of the hospital by the rabid inmates.

Theres various limbs ripped off, stomach gougings and a scene to upset cat lovers so enough to keep most horror fans happy.

I actually ended up thinking it was pretty good which was surprising after such a poor start. Its still the sort of DVD that will be in the bargain bins very soon!!
