![]() Arriving in southern Kentucky, sorority girls and other local college students told they would be locked inside a nearby haunted house that treated plague victims years ago find it's being haunted by the ghosts of the deceased there and try to get out of the location alive. What did everyone think of this one? |

This here is a pretty enjoyable film. One of the best things about it is the absolutely creepy location of the hospital as it's among the most chilling haunted houses ever. It's not enough that the backstory to this is creepy already as the actual location it's set at makes for a perfect fodder for these kinds of films, but to mix it with a terrifying location just makes it the absolute best. The hallways are dark, dirty, unclean and terrifying, appearing to go on for miles off into the darkness, which is always quite fun, while the different rooms where there's plenty of creepy goings-on inside their gives it a lot of fun here. The fun premise here is not to be outdone by the creepy factor here, which uses the traditional college initiation factor mixed with the haunted house-style location that actually has a secret purpose, but this is all done with such a creepy and generally oppressive tone that makes it all the better with the fact that all of them are tormented by different shock tactics. There's always the quick shock cuts of seeing ghostly figures wandering around in the background or flinging objects at them which prove to be hallucinations get some chills into an already creepy film. The few times where outside noises are used make it even better, since it pops up when there's nothing else to be heard and really adds a great feel to this one. There's also the fact that it plays around with classic ghost movie scares to make it feel even more creepy and terrifying, as the shower hallucination is top-notch, a couple of scenes where the ghosts go on major stalking rampage in the second half banging around on the walls, appearing as a character's reflection in a mirror or someone barely catches notice of a ghostly figure running by in the background really helps to not only add to that creepiness but give it some solid haunting action leading into the final half. The few kills in here aren't that bad getting in some needed gore, and with the shower scene here giving it a really nice bit of nudity, all make the film somewhat watchable and enjoyable, but there are a couple of problems with it. The main one here is the absolutely disjointed plot line it has. While it is a novel idea to have the film continuously go back-and- forth between three or four different points in time during the course of the film to try to explain what's going on, instead of simplifying things they make the film even less understandable. The jumping back-and-forth between the several different time-periods at random intervals no less makes this nearly impossible to comprehend, and that would be the big problem with it all as it makes them seem all the jumbled around for no reason. This is the main part of this one's flaws. |

Back when I was an addiction counselor, I had a client who played one of the ghost twins in this movie. Sweet girl, very personable, very pretty, but I checked out the movie after she told me about it, and I totally understood why she may have turned to drugs. It's...yeah, it's really bad. |

Really, wow. Do you remember at all which one she played? I still really liked it though. |

Yeah, I still remember her name, who she played, etc. However, while it's been seven years and I'm not her counselor anymore, to state her name would nevertheless constitute an ethical betrayal. What I can say, though, is that there are only two ghost twins in this flick, and she played one of them. |

I'd never ask you to do that, but she was one of the twins? That's pretty cool. |
