Trivia
The "Sleeping Beauty" animated clip is not an excerpt from an animated film, but was created specifically for this movie.

Goofs
At the end of the movie, Robert takes unconscious Amy out of the hospital. The cardiac monitor shows absence of cardiac electrical activity, i.e. asystole. Asystole is a type of cardiac arrest classified as "non shockable rhythm" and its initial management exclude the use of defibrillation. They should have started cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) maneuvers instead. Furthermore, when an electrical shock is delivered, a typical waveform should have appeared in the monitor.

Quotes
Mrs. Folder: No button for the second floor.
Amy: Have they cleared it out already?
Mrs. Folder: There wouldn't be much point in that. It's been closed off since 1959. If they couldn't be bothered to clear it then, I don't see the point in bothering now. It's been disconnected ever since.

Crazy credits
First end credit: "To Madeleine who never really left."

Alternate versions
Violence, gore, and language has been edited out of the US release to obtain a PG-13 rating.

Like my worst nightmare came true

I like horror movies. "Fragile" is like nowadays "japanese-horror" movies, but with a bit of European soul added. Everything's set to get you some goosebumps. An old children's hospital that is about to being closed, moody soundtrack, great set decorations and props and makeup, and sound effects that make you jump out of your skin sometimes. The movie hit a bullseye for me. Hospitals and abandoned places scare the hell out of me so watching this movie was like my worst nightmare came true. It was definitively scarier than The Ring. If you get the creep from hospitals, abandoned places and stuff like that, I do recommend this movie.
