Amateur movie with Big budget

This movie was so-so. It had it's moments, but wasn't the greatest.
Ariella Broughton
It is neither dumb nor smart enough to be fun, and spends way too much time with its boring human characters.

The concept of the movie is good. The execution is very weak. With the right people behind this movie and a decent budget this movie could have been much better. Change the actors as well. Such terrible acting, I think my 4 year old is a better actor than most of them combined.Once again, good storyline, although, a few too many boobs and rape scenes.Don't get fooled by the cover of the DVD.. I believe those are fake reviews as well here on IMDb. 5 of the reviews get a perfect 10, which is according to any standards impossible for this movie.Hopefully the makers learn from their mistakes and next project will be better.

I would give this a -10 if I could. This was one movie I wish I have never seen or wasted my time on. To me it seemed like it was the filmmaker and possibly even the male actors involved cheap excuse to get all the girls naked and to subject them to rape, torture, etc... Disgusting and vile acts are shown dealing with "body fluids" and "Necrophilia" just to name a couple... Why the females would even agree to be a part of this is beyond me? If they were or are that desperate to be in a movie then they would have been better off doing an honest porn/adult movie or even a soft core adult movie instead of what they subjected themselves to in this movie just to be in a movie. Like I said, I just can't believe people would actually agree to go ahead and do the things or allow the other people to do things to them just for a "movie" and with how it is it just appears like the writer/directors cheap way of getting girls to be naked and to abuse them. Completely horrible and avoid at all costs...

About ten minutes into "The Hospital", I realized that this was not going to be the film I was expecting. Billed as a haunted house (or abandoned hospital, to be exact) / psycho-slasher hybrid, I was fully prepared to take in a little indie picture akin to the recent "The Haunting of Whaley House" with a dash of slice 'n dice slasher sauce thrown in to satisfy the gorehounds. What I got was pure B-grade exploitation.While a supernatural element is present, "The Hospital" has more in common with the grindhouse shocksploitation of the '70s ("I Spit on Your Grave", "Last House on the Left", etc.) than it does any haunted house film. All the staples of the genre are here- shocking deaths, rape, dismemberment, breasts (lots and lots of breasts, all shapes and sizes), and vile depictions of unimaginable acts intended to shock and disgust. Viewed in this context, I found "The Hospital" to be quite an enjoyable slice of sleaze.In addition to aforementioned genre staples, the film also does feature some of the unfortunate (or charming, depending on your point of view) elements commonly associated with the breed- some sub-par acting, poor lighting and sound design, and shoddy special effects (specifically the ineffective CGI. I understand this was most likely done for budgetary reasons, but in this type of film, I would personally take the cheapest, most amateur practical effects over mediocre CGI any day.). However, none of these issues severely hindered my enjoyment of "The Hospital". This film is not "Citizen Kane", nor does it have any intention to be.As a fan of horror of all sub-genres, I would recommend "The Hospital" to those with a strong stomach. It's most certainly not a film for everybody, but those with an affinity for exploitation and ultra low-budget indies should find plenty to appreciate here.

AIN'T IT COOL NEWS REVIEWTHE HOSPITAL is a sick and twisted ordeal which, like THE G-STRING HORROR, centers around a paranormal investigation show. This time around, a group of guys lure a handful of women into a supposedly haunted hospital telling them that they will be a part of a paranormal investigation show which will be seen by millions of viewers. In actuality, this is a trap and GHOST HUNTERS soon morphs into an especially tasteless installment of HOSTEL pretty hastily.To give this film credit, it does have some unexpected turns from start to finish and is able to mislead pretty well throughout, making this a truly unpredictable ride.On the other hand, this is an especially diabolical film with no woman in its large cast getting out without being stripped, raped, and killed—and sometimes not in that order. There are scenes of torture, abuse, rape, and murder a-plenty here, and though there is attention to story, it is clear the focus of the film is to show different girls in peril over and over and over again.Had the torture inflicted in this film not been such the object of so many minutes in the film's run time, I'd believe the filmmakers may have been trying to make a statement here about violence by going so far over the top. But sadly, I felt the film may be a little too much fascinated with the torture to know when enough is enough. It was very tough to sit through this film and it definitely caused a lot of unease, which a good horror movie should do, I guess.But I like a point to my violence, and THE HOSPITAL doesn't seem to have a lot of it besides racking up a kill count with some of the most depraved kills enacted upon anyone in cinematic history. If you have an iron stomach, you might be able to withstand this perverse little indie, but though there is some kind of retribution to the rapist killers in the end, it is definitely not what the camera seems to linger on.
