It was almost a decade since the last stage version of John Carpenter (ghosts less than stellar March), a fallow period in which he was responsible for episodes of Masters of Horror television and saw several of his classics redone. Often very difficult.
But this feature, carpenter 20, reveals the director of Halloween and the thing has not entirely lost his touch, designing an effective if somewhat old-fashioned (both in tone and execution) of chiller applicants in general that off his hat for the precursor of Sam Fuller's Shock Corridor (1963).
Located in Oregon in 1966, Kristen Amber Heard is a troubled woman sent to a psychiatric hospital in North Bend, after burning farm. Set by Jared Harris, alternately dark / funny shrink, Kristen is limited to all women in the department as well as nurses and other batch-resistant patients (Danielle Panabaker, Mamie Gummer, Lyndsy Fonseca, Laura Leigh).
But there is no - or something - if not prowling dark corridors of the hospital, picking people out ...
The next thing, carpenter Lu always been to offer instead of displaying. Although there is more gore here than typical for him, it's not Saw clone, depending on the edition of shock and Boo! times of supply voltage.
The "twist" ending is not hard to guess, but Carpenter wring the tension of the material shot his panoramic camera brand floating creepily through the dark moments.
Meanwhile, flows of courage heard some terribly thin. It has its flaws, but the room comes to rewards.
