A good horror film which turns into something of a scream murder film, a good twist in it keeps you thinking throughout the film but unlike the first Boogeyman film it hasn't got the spookiness about it!! Worth a watch if you like this kind of thing.
This is a truly horrific film. It is the stuff of nightmares, and some of the very graphic and bloody scenes really make one's flesh creep. The fact that it all takes place upon a psychiactric ward of a hospital makes it all the more scary.
Technically and artistically, it is all very well done, and this makes it difficult to dismiss, unlike many similar films in this genre. It looks very real, and, therefore, very nasty indeed.
It doesn't give the kind of rollercoaster ride provided by such films as 'The Exorcist' and 'Poltergeist', but it is well beyond the kind of superfiicial scares of the typical 'ghost train'. It gives the same kind of shocks which one finds in the 'Saw' series.
There is a prevailing ambiguity about whether what one is seeing is real, supernatural or a psychotic delusion; this adds to the atmosphere of tension and suspense.
If you like graphic and violent horror films, which may also have a psychotic interpretation, then this is a must see ! If not, avoid it like the plague !
