I saw Insane on Youtube's Kings Of Horror channel, now when going into any movie from them you need to be aware that it's almost certainly going to be awful.

Insane however immediatly struck me as having considerably higher production values than most other films on the channel and it's opening sequence was really quite good.

It tells the story of a serial killer in a secluded off the beaten track hotel run by a mysterious and more than a little odd man. Yes it's a slasher, but as far as they go this does have some originality.

Now Insane should have been better but sadly it was marred by a few bits of dodgy writing, an unfleshed out side story and well..........the other thing I can't reveal as it would spoil things but lets just say it makes no sense.

Insane isn't your run of the mill slasher, it's above average in quality but well below average where it actually matters.

I'd say this is a harmless watch for fans of the sub-genre but it's flaws have left what could have been a good film a real let down.

The Good:

Quite well made all things considered

Really quite unpredictable

The Bad:

Needed fleshing out a bit more

Some of it makes no sense whatsoever

Things I Learnt From This Movie:

If you look deep within the bowels of Kings Of Horror there are passable movies, DEEP

This is a run of the mill horror movie for the most part with the typical same old predictable scares thrills and chills of every other horror movie of this type you've seen before. A lot of these movies have terrible acting and the acting here is not stunning or anything but it's not terrible by any stretch some of the actors in this are actually pretty good. The story is predictable and the same old scares you've come to expect before so that is the main problem with this movie. Not sure what else to say but I have to write more lines. Great Swedish movies are hard to find but it's even more hard to find one from Finland.

How is it possible that this has a rating of 7.4? and the review on here giving it a 10 must be working for the makers of this awful rubbish. The story line is a direct copy/ripoff from psycho, the acting is poor, and the music score is f####,but then again the low budget attached to this film should have been a dead give away. My advice if you really want to see this crap, push the fast forward button, believe me you won't miss a thing, and for those teen agers thinking it might be half OK cause of the gore and boobies it might have, forget it! a bit of blood here and there, and sorry no boobies.

This is the runner up for worst crap of 2011, 1 out of 10!

Bad is always bad and this one is really bad! It's a run of the mill copy of the bad Psycho 2-4 movies, hey it even got a bad copy of Norman Bates!! The killer is a cross between the killer from The Prowler and Valentines Day with a bit of Darth Vader's breathing for good measure! Stupid characters that don't even scream for help or beg for there life or anything...just some quiet sobbing. And too ruin it all, if you've seen the trailer (?) you've seen every murder in the film...what did they think when they put that one out...i don't know. And as always when swedes make a horror flick with lots of blood and guts, the thing is in English! Nooo good people out there save your time and do something better for an hour and a half instead!! Maybe sort out your plastic-bags under your sink?

God awful movie, I cannot rate 0 thats why it's 1/10.

I was fooled by the two Swedish reviewers who given it 10/10 bringing the IMDb rate up to 7. If this is the best Swedish horror film ever then they should stop making horror movies now. Seriously my eyes hurt from watching this crap.

Camera works awful, the sound effect is awful, music was awful, actors are so amateur it was humorous to watch. Script was unforgivable, very unformulated and poorly put together It's an insult to the eyes and mind.

Should avoid at all cost. Big waste of time.

This is the first time I have written a review. I have been using the IMD site for a number of years and always found it very useful, especially when it comes to deciding whether or not to watch a movie or not. When I decided to watch "Insane", it had a rating of 7.4. I thought I was in for a good night's entertainment. This was not the case. This movie is not the worst I have ever seen but I have given it the lowest score that was available to try and balance out some of the outrageously high scores that could have only been given by the mother of the director or the mother of one of the actors. Don't pay money to watch this movie take your partner out for a meal instead.

My dad always gets these kinds of movies: The ones that some people never hear of. That means that I have seen my fair share of independent films and amateur films. I also love horror films and have seen plenty to compare this with. This movie has a a decent plot, but the way they made it completely sucks. You are not informed about the characters very thoroughly, and it starts out looking like the middle of a movie: You have no idea what's going on, who the people are, where they are located, or anything useful. It's like the directors assume you know. It wasn't the worst horror film I've seen but it was nowhere near good. The acting is okay at times but it's like they are aware they are on film and talk and act as though people are watching. There's no screaming or real emotions shown during fight scenes; just a wimper and a cry here and there. Overall, I would not recommend this movie to anyone.

Provided, of course, your definition of "time" happens to roughly equal "the last 3 Psycho movies". Let's face it, there's just not a lot you can do with the "mentally unstable man-child who owns a hotel and hates women" angle. What little there is in that well was done in the original Psycho film...and even that was heavily influenced by Ed Gein who, contrary to what appears to be popular belief, never owned a hotel.

And that's pretty much the plot...a few people get offed at a hotel owned and run by a mildly creepy guy who seems a bit too attentive. The kills are kind of fun but there's hardly enough to justify a whole film. They even introduce characters just to kill them a minute later. Understandable, considering there's only really 3 main characters. You gotta stretch the film out somehow. The film itself isn't bad, it's just not terribly good. I guess if you have some time to kill and you're not faced with a plethora of terrific options, it might be a good way to waste some time.

I'm not much on words but let me say this movie is pretty damn good. Screw the haters. My kind of movie. Love this type of movie and it is not a psycho rip off. Only thing is i want more gore. All in all not a waste of time. most people don't have any taste. It amazes me how many idiots are out there.

Loved the plot loved the ending everyone who needed to live did and those that deserve death get it.also I like the killers outfit. The pace wasn't slow and I was entertained through out. Don't know why most foreign movies are good while America produces so much dribble. Always love to see a movie that makes me happy like this one. I recommend to anyone who likes horror.

Well, I went into this film not expecting anything mind blowing and just a bit of low budget horror - this is exactly what I got. The opening scene gets you gripped right away, but I warn, it's also a bit cheesy. I mean come on, you'd be screaming for your life - I wont give too much away. The acting overall is very tongue in cheek, but entertaining none the less - I love the cop that stops buy. The best actor by far was the lead role David played by Lars Bethke - he was perfect for the role and made the film feel very creepy and suspenseful. I must admit I jumped a couple of times. So if you like low budget slasher horror then this film is definitely for you, if not and you need something to stimulate your mind then give it a miss. Overall for the budget I'd give this a 7/10.

This is the second time I've come back to a movie only to write it a review. First time was "The Grudge", to which I felt obligated to pay proper respect and give a praising review as of which it was worthy! This time - the complete and utter opposite. This is the first time I've felt the need to rate a movie 1.

It took me a while to get my hands on this movie. The waiting made me move from "anticipating" to "anxious". My, did I waste my time... I don't like trashing somebody else's art, as people obviously worked hard in order to create this film. I just honestly find it hard to understand how they spent 750k dollars and came up with, well, this.

The acting? I'm pretty sure this was the first gig for the actors and actresses here, though I didn't check. They might have tried, but their low level simply wreaked to high heaven... The story? Not original, not intriguing, not interesting and not good. The script? Predictable to the level of it being preposterous. Many times you could just guess what was about to happen or what a certain character was about to say. The ending? No twist, no new realizations, not a thing.

I honestly don't mean to sound condescending or uppity, I'm not one to talk or pass judgement as I've never worked on a movie and have never published any piece of art, written or visual. However, this "movie" felt like someone woke up one day and thought "Hey, why don't I make a movie?" he then proceeded to get some friends and their friends to write it, shoot it, be in it and write the music for it. And of course, to go on IMDb and rate it 10 so people would think it was worth the watch.

Painfully unprofessional. Next time, kindly show us a little more respect than that. Everything here is just my opinion (though most other reviews I've just read for it agreed with me, and weren't as nice about it), but if you ask me - I say stay the HELL away from this "movie".

ps If you suspect me of being in anyway biased, you're absolutely right. I'm biased by the fact that I've watched this. If you wish to prove me wrong - rent the movie, by all means. Just make sure you imaging me laughing and saying "I told you so!" when the credits roll. Cheers :)

I'm easy on movies. I appreciate most attempts by other people to create things. However, "Insane" has to be the worst movie I've ever seen and having seen 100's in this year alone that's saying a lot. The movie starts off with the time worn cliché' girl in the bathtub being spied upon, but that's OK, that theme still has a little leg room in the hands of a capable writer. Even with five writers this movie never rises above a predictable and substandard dialogue and falls completely flat on true suspense. But that's not the worst of it. The low budget, the "how in the world could that happen?" scenes that seems to occur every 5 minutes and the unconvincing lead actor serial killer made me wonder if I should be watching lead paint dry instead. All I had to look forward to was the ending in the hopes that there I would find some release, some satisfaction, some moral to the story but my hopes were dashed when the credits rolled up.

Only the makers of this movie and their closest friends would enjoy this movie. Oh yeah...and serial killers.

Don't listen to the glowing reviews on this movie. The people saying such positive things obviously have an association with the movie in some way.

"Insane" is one of, if not THE, worst movie I've ever seen in my life. And I've seen "Clueless." As far as horror movies go it's still bottom of the barrel. Typical slasher movie that is extremely predictable and with an awful, truly awful, musical score. The composer must have scored the entire thing on some Casio he got from a nickle and dime store.

The only positive thing I can say about this "film" is that the women in it are very hot. That's about it.

You know who the killer is, you know who's going to die, you know what's going to happen next. And it all plods along. Basic premise of this is: girl checks into hotel - dies, girl checks into hotel - dies, girl checks into hotel - dies. The end.

Terrible music, terrible dialog, terrible music, terrible quality. Just the worst piece of garbage I've ever seen. If you can rent a copy please do the world a favor and burn it so no one else can suffer through this mess. Boooooooooo!!!

I wouldn't say DON'T watch this movie, because if you want to watch the worst movie ever released then, this is the movie, you have to watch. If you want to see lousy actors, lousy dialogs, then, this is the movie you should see. I think this movie is very "prétentieux", why trying to do a new psycho, with bad actors, stupid screen writing, and, also very bad graphic qualities( it really looks like a soap opera.) At lest I hope, this movie didn't cost much than 1000 Swedish kroner!!! even less I think anyone can do better than this with the camera from a phone and a little bit of imagination. This is the first time for me here, i never wrote a review before, but just watching that "thing" made me so upset because, it was well rated. I didn't read the critics before,but i watched it because it was well rated. So again, if you want to make a movie, then watch this one to see everything you should avoid doing.

The chasing parts are stupid, people act like never anybody would do in this situation, they don't scream, they try to escape but stop for no reason... it would take me days to write what is so bad in this movie, so i better stop now.

BUT THIS MOVIE DESERVE MINUS STARS, one star is already too much.

Thank you , and please excuse my bad English, this is not my language.

This film is actually a really nice tribute to 80's slasher. I cannot believe all the negative critics on this site. A wonderful tribute to Psycho! I hope this movie is going well in the world and the film-makers continue to make genre films in Sweden. I loved Evil Ed and this is not worse, just a different kind of movie. The end sequence is absolutely fantastic. Would love to know how the scene was done? Otherwise, I think the acting was OK, but the film feels dubbed? The photo is brilliant and it is a fantastic environment. Where is this hotel? The story was a bit predictable but there is a nice twist at the end. The murders are cruel, and the makeup effects are brilliant. To be an extreme low-budget film, I think it's fantastic!

this a pretty good and watchable movie, i have seen others with higher ratings and better comments, a lot worse than that.its a classic horror flick, nice atmosphere,good acting,especially the man in the leading role,in a great decorated 60's hotel. the director shows us a point of view different than usually tries to give us a little mystery about the killer, and he is successful i think.so there is nothing wrong about this movie and i have seen a almost every movie, of this kind after 1995,so i deserve to have an opinion, and one that counts.the other reviews here are frivolous and draft a movie is a lot of things,not only one,to be judged by.
