Spoilt by the ending
I absolutely loved this film when it first came out, probably because I was far too young to be watching it. But watching it back now, it’s a bit of a disappointment.

Plot wise it’s fairly straight forward and probably not entirely original, but you can’t really go wrong setting a horror film in an old asylum. That alone gives you the creeps. It’s quite funny and also very bloody and gory, and Geoffrey Rush does fairly well channeling his inner Vincent Price. Sadly Jeffrey Combs is a very underused though. My main issue with this film is that the ending really lets it down. It goes a bit bonkers and strays a little too far away from the asylum/mad doctor premise, and whilst I understand the ending and what they were trying to get at, for me they should’ve gone down a different route.
