The Blackburn Asylum

Surprisingly enough, I rated this a 4 stars! But here is why: the actors did OK overall, I do believe it was the characters that had problems and not those on set. A lot of blood, plenty clichés, those lovely situations where our heroes could die, but of course they are given all the time in the world to escape and save the day.

If you compare it to other movies, like Wrong Turn, The Hill Have eyes, this one will fall flat. It looks cheaper, it uses the same moves you've seen 1000 times, perhaps C+ movie at best. If they tried better with the development of the bad guys, I think we could have been in for a good ol' B horror. Close but no cigar.

Overall, for a very boring night, it could fill up some time in a somewhat, meh kind of way. Just go without expectations and be ready for a plot that was written too many times already.

Cheers!

Plot: stolen from wrong turn to destroy it. Screenplay: Dull,uninteresting, slow and full of repetitive moves. Characters: Moron, idiotic and willing volunteers to be slaughtered by more moron and idiotic killers.. Also encouraging you to wish for their death. Acting: Flat and emotionless. Direction: What to say..!!! Summary: This movie is neither a serious nor a parody. It is unique boredom of its own kind.

What a laughable waste of time. This stuntman turned wannabe Director seems to be driven more by the ego of directing then possess any professional skills needed to construct a watchable film.

I hope he is a better stuntman then Director but then Canada has very good unemployment benefits I understand.

If you seen Wrong Turn and 13 Ghosts.....then this is a one star ripoff ...nuff said
