Rating:  - Not Nearly Enough Screen-Time For Dendrie Taylor!...
Ok, MADHOUSE is a confounding movie to me. It has great atmosphere throughout, yet spoils some of it by being so hokey in spots! The ghostly kid is lame, especially when he goes floating past the windows! Still, I did like the basic storyline, and some of the characters were quite original. Joshua Leonard was a decent Clark, though his wimpiness did grate my nerves! Thankfully, he redeems himself at the end. Jordan Ladd is not only a hottie, but also a good actress. She adds a nice twist in the plot. ... Read More
Rating: - Mixed feelings...
I'm torn when it comes to this movie. I liked the characters, and some of the death scenes were pretty cool. On the other, there are huge plot wholes and it gives a really messed up view of the mental health system. I work with people who have some mental health issues, and it gives them, hospitals, and medications a really bad name. I wouldn't buy this, but it wasn't a waste of time.
Rating:  - The forgotten in the basement
And this movie slipped under the wires. It is a good movie...and proving to me that anything Joshua Leonard is in will be worth a look. It has creepy moments...and twists along the way...but it is all easy to follow. I would have enjoyed seeing more of the head nurse act...she was off the wall! Smiling a Joshua one moment...glaring and moving her eyes to your eye level the next in a stern stare down like a snake.
Red herring driven, the plot will keep you entertained. And guessing ... Read More
Rating:  - what happens when Identity and Silence of the Lambs meets...
This movie was on my list of possible psychological thrillers for me to buy for quite a while now. I'm not sure what made me pause. Maybe it was the perfectly fantastic Session 9 that kept me from it. I figured that no other movie of it's type could possibly chill me quite as much. With the release of House of Voices recently as well as Boo, I figured hey, why not, I'll try madhouse. This movie is clever, scary and intensely riveting. You never truly know whether there really is a malevolent force at ... Read More
Rating: - Never trust a schizophrenic....ever........
I believe horror fans will love this one. It centers around a student who is interning at a mental hospital, with a jaded past.
From the first second, this movie pulls you in with a violent collage of brutal images. It follows our main character, as he tries to unlock the mysteries of this asylum.
Once he meets the strange prisioner in the basement, things go from normal to crazy real quickly.The casting in this movie wasn't the best, but the characters WERE well written. Overall, I had fun ... Read More
