    I am VERY on the fence with this one.

    What I did like was the props and atmosphere. The script was not (too) terrible. And the sound/music was quite good.

    I will say, I did not care for the acting here. It was pretty amateur and overall the movie came off quite silly and campy. I still enjoyed it and genuinely laughed several times, but I get the feeling they weren't going for that.

    Also, this feels like a really boring story the entire time. A story you've seen countless times. The final five minutes attempt a twist, which had some potential, but missed a couple big answers and it's almost like they came up with it last second like when the teacher is going around picking up homework. At least give a LITTLE character development or foreshadowing. I didn't care about the main characters at all. They were random and just... I felt nothing for them. At all.

    It would have been better if the film just said nothing and left it at that. No twist. Then I wouldn't expect to have empathized with the characters. Instead, in the end, it came off half-assed.

    I don't think I'd recommend this film to a general audience. I'd probably not even recommend it to a horror buff. It could be worth a single watch but if you skip it, you're not missing out on much.

    Saw, Misery and The Human Centipede plus much more

    Very 'Saw' as other reviewers have said, plus a bit of Misery (an innocent person, or in this case two innocent people, kept captive by a crazed medic). A bit of Human Centipede First Sequence (a madman carrying out extreme surgical experiments). Very good on tension and suspense and overall pretty good and much better than I expected at the start. And I really wasn't expecting the ending! Along with the ambiguity as to what happens to the two victims at the end.

    As I say pretty good and if you like the body horror category well worth seeing.

    Twist

    I really enjoyed this film. The acting and production is good. It's not a horror (although that does depend on what you call a horror) in my opinion, maybe a psychological thriller, not much action.

    Two patients and a doctor in a dirty hospital. They have no memory and the doctor isn't the kindest.

    Not many clues to help you, so trying to figure things out as you watch is interesting. It gets creepier as it goes along and the ending is great in my opinion with a bit of a twist, which i didn't see coming.

    I only came across this by scrolling. It deserves more recognition and a higher rating.

    Pain means you're alive

    If one is seeking a movie with atmosphere and plenty of gore, buckets of blood and many sinister scenes, this checks off all the boxes. In the opening scene, a bloody and heavily bandaged man, manages to get off the table, crawl down the hall, is discovered, and later wakes up across from a woman who is also bandaged, and there is a man (doctor?) supposedly trying to make them better. But it seems to be in a very dilapidated hospital, with lots of blood on the walls and floor, and instruments which seem more for torture than healing. The two are not given names, but try to form an alliance to escape. The man helping them seems sincere, but there is also an element that puts his role in more of a malevolent form. As they try to escape, they find things that are more and more disturbing. So if this is your type of movie, you will find it quite passable. And you will probably not expect the ending.

    intriguing plot, pretty well made

    This film was pretty well done. The actor playing the caretaker was crazy and sold it. The lady and man were both good also. It made you think it was just one of those people wake up and have been kidnapped type of scenarios. It was that well in a way but it felt it was so much more. You felt for these people and as it went it made you think of different outcomes and what the real intention could be. Altogether a well made horror film and with limited cast makes it easier to follow and enjoy.
