The filmmakers toss subtlety out the window in favor of fun, in your face chills that stick their landing. They also know how to stretch their meager budget; the ghosts of past patients in this asylum play a major role in inducing goosebumps.

Finally, a little self-awareness.

The filmmakers seem unaware that they're beating a dead horse. As the uniformly annoying characters stumble around, screaming and cursing, we don't give a hoot for their survival.

Rated: 1/5

While it's not the worst Paranormal Activity ripoff, there's still nothing worth watching in this throwaway found-footage CGI-fest.

Rated: 2/5

Deep Focus Review

The procession of cliché scenes is presented with an undeniable amount of horrific energy, marked by some interesting changes in the setting and creepy creature design.

Rated: 3/4

I really liked this. One you'll be on edge alot, and at the end more scary. I'm very into horror and found footage and can say this is a definite worth a watch 3 1/2 stars because the acting wasnt great at the start and once you've watched it you probably wouldn't need to watch it again for a while

Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars

Well. I'm going to give 4 stars to encourage Canadian cinema. But I didn't like it very much. Since 1:00:00 I couldn't wait to get to 1:33:30 and finish it all. Don't be impressed by my bad taste either, maybe there is someone who likes it, not me.

My god.. This film was REALLY creepy! I’m shocked how creepy and gory this was and now I can’t sleep. It’s basically the Canadian Blair witch. Definitely worth a watch.

Very pleasantly surprised at how good this movie was. I wasn’t expecting much from it but really enjoyed it. From the start I thought I knew where the story was going and what would happen but the filmmakers really took it the extra mile. Nothing mind-blowing here but a really solid horror movie. Just goes to show that a low budget doesn’t have to mean bad.
