A simple man, Dr. Walter Newman has high aspirations to cure all disease through genetic manipulation. His obsession with his mission draws him deeper into his own dark world, distracting him from his wife Olivia and from his responsibilities to his patients at the Edgewood Asylum. The doctor's loyal but diabolical nurse, Ms. Tinsley, decides to take matters into her own hands and in secret she conducts her own experiment. When Dr. Newman realizes what has been done, a deformed creature that defies nature is created. Part human, part nightmare. Dr. Newman knows what he must do, but is it already too late?

Comwayon A Disappointing Continuation
RipDelight This is a tender, generous movie that likes its characters and presents them as real people, full of flaws and strengths.
Sameer Callahan It really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.
Jenna Walter The film may be flawed, but its message is not.
movieman_kev Decades ago, Dr. Walter Newman faces a moral crises, continue on with his grand but macabre experiments in an attempt to cure all diseases or save his marriage to the cuter mother of her child. Fortunately (or unfortunately given one's deposition) his nurse has no such dilemma and seeks to continue the experiments in secret. Experiments that have dire effects for the doctor's unborn child.This B-movie actually wasn't too bad until about 40 minutes in it morphed into an uninspired, by-the books slasher. Basically if you choose to watch this movie, do yourself a favor and just flip it off at the moment that the movie switches over to the present day. You'll save yourself some time and will possibly like the movie better that way.
Jadeddakota This movie was terrible in every way possible. why two middle aged women are fighting for a mad scientist experimenting on human heads and making little income anyway is beyond me. Add that to the fact that the "flashback" lasted forty minutes, the actors sucked and couldn't use a more inventive word than 'dummy', the effects were poor and the plot was predictable and terribly thought out. 2 of the 4 people I was watching this with actual left the room. To sleep. The people didn't even seem concerned when one by one their friends were picked off or their brains picked out, but this was probably due to the terrible (and more than half deaf) characters. who don't even try to find weapons or escape and are more worried about hiding the dead bodies. I actually created an account on my phone just to say how much it sucked. If you choose to watch it anyway..good luck.
Philimac19-300-712012 I started an IMDb account just to review this movie. So let's see here:1. I have never seen a movie where the back story took 45 minutes. I've seen movies where the back story was the entire movie, and the ending brought you to present day, or the back story took 5 to 10 minutes then brought you to present day, but this movie was two terrible movies lumped together in one big God awful abomination. The weird thing was it starts at present day for 2 minutes, then goes to the past for the first half of the entire movie. Heres the first 45 minutes: Doctors wife is pregnant. Doctor has crazy nurse who wants his penis. Nurse injects Doctors wife with crazy steroid horse face formula. Thats it. Heres the rest of the movie: See No Evil. But with deaf kids. 2. The woman who takes care of the deaf children is racist and here's how I know. Whenever a deaf kid gets abducted(slowly) the woman does everything in her power to get them back. When the mongoloid hits a black kid and takes off with some deaf girl, the woman follows him to get the girl back. The whole group completely left that deaf black kid to fend for himself for like 15 minutes. I had to rewatch it to make sure I understood. The creature walks into the room. Yeah, walks. Everyone stands up like "Oh no.... should of picked a room with a door or something" and the black kid tries to run out of the room when the creature throws him down. A small fight ensues between the beast and Lou Diamond Phillips's brother, then the creature runs away with a deaf girl and they straight up leave that black kid. As the movie goes on they don't even mention his whereabouts or the fact that he exists. Seems legit. Then when he does come back into the movie, freaking out waving his hands all willy nilly the woman just yells at him, and that was pretty much that. 3. This was one Baldwin brother away from being on the SyFy channel.
roberthaynes What a shame - this could have been so much better in more capable hands. The writing and direction here falls very flat as well as some of the "porn level" performances.The story however is an interesting if somewhat schizophrenic one. A weird mix between it's alive and a slasher film the biggest problem with this film is the pace- it's all over and it's often dull which a gruesome slasher film shouldn't be.A shame since the film looks good - is technically slick with solid effects work and has some very novel ideas - what a pity - better luck next time though guys. Some lame plot contrivances here and there but overall it could have been much worse, but should have been much better.This review is as schizophrenic as the pace of this film :)
