Wow. The bad horror films/directors are jousting for the worst position. Hard to imagine this movie losing to another movie.
Yeah, there's back story, BUT the backstory does not explain anything. Why this spooky old asylum is nocturnal, well, no one knows.
And all five of the characters are NOT likeable. With that... it's hard to root for anyone.

Ok, it's low budget. But it is still just crap. Crappy acting, crappy writing, crappy everything. Though as a DP I give the cinematography a pass cuz I'm sure he had no money and high school kids as crew. The film is that bad. And $7 to watch it. C'mon! I guess fake accounts are easy to make. Any review praising this film must be associated with it. In fact one of the producers reviewed it and gave it a 10. That's hard up.
...an innocent bunny will die. This is how bad this is. It's breakfast cereal with water bad. It's a snowstorm without shoes bad. It's Christmas at your drunk Aunt Hilda's bad.
Just don't and save a bunny.
This film took a real event in history and distorted and changed it to fit their own agenda. To claim it was based on true events is grasping at straws. Also, their take on Preston's history is blatantly sensationalized. Anna Corbin was a real person, her murder was brutal and the man who killed her got away with it. The Superintendent or "Warden" did not kill Anna Corbin, it was a ward, Eugene Monroe, from the school who had been suspected of killing another young woman in 1947, then in 1950 Anna was murdered while he was at Preston on cleaning detail just yards away from Anna's office. Although he was acquitted, he went on to murder again, this time in Tulsa, the victim being a pregnant dance instructor. He went to prison for 29 years for that crime. The filmmakers had no right to take Anna's story and change it, or to make her out to be a vindictive ghost when that is not the case. They have dishonored the dead who walked the halls of Preston. Just like in the movie the Conjuring, the name and story of a defenseless woman has been sullied and slandered with no way to speak for herself to tell the world that their telling of her story is false. This is not a true story, this is a work of complete fiction and slander.
Dude.. I paid 7 bucks.. and forced every minute of this into my skull.. the only horror felt watching this movie is the sense of loss felt for having watched it in the 1st place.
