I'm here to give you a REAL review of this movie, not some extreme movie critic review bullsh*t. You may find some of the things I say to be spoilers, but this movie is already spoiled. Don't watch this and expect to get what the title of the movie tells you. I hated every single character of this movie and couldn't wait for them to die. Joel and Kate want a vacation yet their adult career is a ghost hunter. The fat guy is always talking about food and acts stupid, then just vanishes from the movie. Roger is just that irritating anti-everything that nobody really wants in the group and all he does is inconvenience everyone. The story of the location in this movie is very short but sweet. Classic twisted doctor that tortures people in a few interesting ways compared to your standard murderer, just not enough ways. The guy in charge telling the story was creepy as f*ck the whole time. Sh*t started to pick up eventually with something I've never seen in any of these movies, but then they ruined it with cheesy music. You can find scarier music/sound files in a Google search. Before I knew it, the movie was over and only one person died. What an unfinished, generic story. This had potential to be good if it was done a little better and the actual story extended. Not worth watching. Grave Encounters is way better.

When I first saw the title I thought 'Oh No, not another Found Footage film set in an abandoned Prison/Hospital/Looney Bin". I was pleasantly surprised in the first five minutes by the decent acting first up, then by the lack of cheese. The film is well paced without overdoing some of the hackneyed devices too common in Found Footage films such as Lewton Buses, overly shaky footage, blurred images of apparitions as the camera equipment plays up etc. The scares are genuine too. A real 'lights off on the sofa with the wife' film. A very good effort indeed capped by a superbly entertaining cameo by Dee Wallace (the mother in ET) as a foul mouthed TV executive. Well worth a watch for my money. You could do a lot worse. The Asylum et al could learn a thing or two from the makers of this little gem, namely employ some real actors every now and again

I'm not really into horror films, but I had a chance to watch this film and although it was pretty scary, the story and quality made it easy to watch. I would love to see more from these guys. The cinematography and score were pretty good and the acting was definitely top notch. The story line taking place in a prison was not in itself an original idea, but the way the production team and the writers used current day spins on the story was refreshing. In addition and without spoiling the story, the twist at the end was good as well. I like it when bad people have bad things coming to them and that was the case with this film. I'm not a big film of happy endings. I like films that explore more realistic endings and this film was basically a film that was well rounded and realistic.

As a paranormal investigator, I was very impressed with how closely the movie portrayed our team. All the personalities fit to a "T" and I was even more impressed at the fact that it actually made me laugh, more than just a couple times. Great horror flick with great story line! Filming was professionally done and I love the fact it wasn't another "Paranormal Activity" copycat.We rented the movie but I would have purchased and plan to purchase for our movie collection. Only reason I did not give the movie a 10 were because in my years of experience as an investigator, a lot of what occurs (even tho its scary) is a little far fetched. I'd go into details but don't want to spoil for viewers! Yet I understand that it is a movie and it had to be done. :) Enjoy!
