The Clinic Audience Reviews

Breakinger A Brilliant Conflict
Dynamixor The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.
Chirphymium It's entirely possible that sending the audience out feeling lousy was intentional
Brennan Camacho Mostly, the movie is committed to the value of a good time.
a_baron "The Clinic" has been called a horror film, but sick is probably a better description. There is nothing supernatural about it but ultimately it is the things human beings do to each other that are really horrific. Set in 1979, this Australian film sees a heavily pregnant woman travelling through the Outback with the father of her soon to be born child.They check into a motel, he takes leave of her for awhile, and when he returns, she has disappeared. At this point and in view of his later actions, the viewer might be expecting him to rescue the damsel in the nick of time. Alas, he perishes in a car crash en route to do so. Meanwhile, she wakes up in a tub full of iced water minus her baby.The rest of the plot is equally sick, not to mention extremely implausible, although it is said to be based very loosely on true stories of infant abduction. Ironically and most sickeningly, not only is infant abduction a reality but so is foetal abduction; there have been a number of cases in recent years, perpetrated by lone, deranged women, perhaps most notably that of Julie Corey in the United States (where else?) who murdered her neighbour, cut out her baby, and tried to pass it off as her own."The Clinic" is not that gory, and the mastermind is not the usual villain, but unless you like depravity for the sake of it, best to give this one a miss.
ole2025 Its hard to stand watching this movie. Stupidity and ignorance leads to deaths of all but one of the mothers. In almost every scene the mothers do something ignorant and half witted. Written very poorly. I shut off the movie with about 15 minutes of it left. I couldn't stand the stupidity displayed. To think actual people would have brains the size of a walnut is not impressive. I could barely stand to keep watching the movie. I kept thinking this stupidity has to end soon. No one could ever be this stupid. Stumbling and falling into holes and running from wild dogs. Cutting themselves open to find out what color matches their baby. Why not take all the babies and do a dna test instead of killing other mothers to find out which baby is yours? Duh!
celr Somebody had an idea for a horror film and a location: an abandoned...what? some sort of industrial slaughterhouse? Anyway somebody let him use an industrial site for his movie. The idea was pretty dumb in itself but he went ahead anyway. Then he didn't know how to tell the story. Because he hadn't thought it out it didn't make any sense, but evidently he didn't care. He must have thought that having a six hysterical (pun intended), dumb, but attractive women running around trying to kill each other would be enough. The idea is that somebody is running a black market baby factory for rich clients by kidnapping pregnant women, removing their babies by cesarean section, and then having the bleeding, post-op mothers run around trying to kill each other to find out which one survives in the end. Presumably the surviving mom would have the best baby. (!) Nothing in this movie is believable. This is not a supernatural thriller which requires a willing suspension of disbelief. It is impossible to believe the fantastic plot, or the motivations of the operators, or the behavior of the women once they find themselves on the loose in the facility. Everybody does exactly the opposite of what any rational human being would do in similar circumstances. This is awful; don't see it. Not even if it's the last movie on earth and you're bored to death. Better death than watching this sloppy, ridiculous excuse for a horror film.
HorrorOverEverything When I picked this one up I was not looking forward to seeing it at all. I had just seen "Sutures" and I thought this was going to be along the same lines as that film. But I was Pleasantly surprised.This film was pretty suspenseful. The story sucked me in pretty fast, I was interested to find out what was gunna happen to the main characters and how everything would be explained. However, as the film got closer to the end it slowly started to fall apart, and it all let up to a terrible ending.The movie is worth watching for the simple fact that you will be very entertained up until the last 15 minutes or so, and there's a pretty good amount of gore so that should keep the gore hounds interested. Worth watching, just don't expect a great pay off.
