Asylum (2013)

Boring

I like movies that are aware of what they are selling... without [any] greater aspirations than to make people laugh and that's it.

Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.

There are moments in this movie where the great movie it could've been peek out... They're fleeting, here, but they're worth savoring, and they happen often enough to make it worth your while.

I actually signed up for IMDb for the first time, after reading hundreds of reviews, to complain about how terrible this film is, 100% a result of the completely boring voice over.They should re-edit this film and remove them and I'd probably jump up 6 stars. Maybe they were trying for this type of reaction, if so I want to commend them.It's honestly worse than listening to people talk in a movie theater, please god don't rent it, see it, or even watch a preview. At least I can yell at the people in the theater.

I don't know what is going on here, it's a film within a film, and I only managed to watch 50 minutes before I had to skip to the end.It's simply put the worst film I've ever seen ever, I do enjoy films, particularly horror and I can be quite forgiving. But this film is so bad, after year of using IMDb, I've made a profile just to write this.This film is terrible, and should be seen by no one ever. It's not even a train wreck as you could at least have some sorta morbid interest in seeing that.Avoid this film, do not watch this film, it's not a horror, and it's not a comedy it's just bad.

Sweet Jesus !! This is the worst movie I have ever watched !! .. I would rather nail my hand to a table and set fire to it .. Watched this on virgin " front row " it would appear that these films aren't vetted before scheduling .. If your considering watching this movie then I suggest buying a bag of glue 3.99 ( same as it cost to rent this movie on virgin ) as this would then numb the brain sufficiently so , as to make listening to those 2 clowns talking over the whole movie bearable.. That's two films in the last two weeks I've bought that have these unbearable very poor Z list American actors who have children that will in turn be at school getting bullied for ever more because their parents feel the need to appear in this tosh !! ....

The plotAn eleven-person riot squad races to an insane asylum to quell a recent inmate outbreak and hostage situation. They arrive, only to be caught off guard by a sudden barrage of insane patients. When they've finally fought off a wave, two of their squad members are missing, their communications return only static, and the doors are locked. They're trapped. They break up into three teams to track down the lost members. Strange sounds and religious iconography suggest something beyond insanity has taken over the inmates. Sure enough, a simple rescue mission quickly morphs into relentless life or death battles with possessed. When McGahey, a trained, rational hostage negotiator, discovers the ringleader of this possessed insanity is none other than his brother, it falls on him to stop nothing less than the opening of a portal to Hell.This is one bizarre movie.It's sort of like Mystery Science Fiction Theatre. Very hard to describe and follow.It starts out with a priest and then cuts to these guys who appear to be editing or adding special effects to a movie.The rest of the movie shifts back and forth between the asylum and voice over of these two editors making dumb funny comments about the movie which, BTW was supposed to be found footage, and the producer back in the US.It's nearly impossible to watch. Nothing makes sense.Stephen Rhea has really dropped into the abyss.Words cannot describe how bad this movie is.
