Too bad they didn't have some footage of the pen, as it really does look like it should be haunted what with its gothic architecture. Never been to Weston to see the asylum, though they run regular ghost tours through it. This movie was a complete waste of time and I only kept watching because of the WV connection (yep, fellow West Virginian) and also some nifty effects at the beginning of the movie. Otherwise...ugh. Bad acting, plot, WTH with the ending, etc. Agreed.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5110147752122772426.post-11152382869924472732014-01-24T20:12:49.908-08:002014-01-24T20:12:49.908-08:00I am an actual former patient at the Weston State ...I am an actual former patient at the Weston State Hospital (formerly the Trans-Allegheny Lunatic Asylum), many decades ago. I can assure you that the actual facility is more frightening than this film would have you believe. It has been closed for some time, but there are actually guided tours of the place for those who are not squeamish. I, however, would never go back there.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5110147752122772426.post-31442464217041240392014-01-07T21:35:45.699-08:002014-01-07T21:35:45.699-08:00Glad to see you agreeing with yourself.Glad to see you agreeing with yourself.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5110147752122772426.post-23677329671579505582013-10-16T10:57:20.504-07:002013-10-16T10:57:20.504-07:00SO many loose threads if it were a rug I would hav...SO many loose threads if it were a rug I would have thrown it away.

What happened with the portal and the demon? I think with a longer run time and better cast and crew this could've been good. It has a decent set up. It's rare in these types of movies you get people who actually believe in it instead of skeptics.

Shots that "look good" are fine, but not when it breaks continuity and becomes confusing for your audience.<br /><br />But they'd probably be the type to claim that an audience that was confused just "didn't understand their vision" or something.mistressofmuseshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09684568046520953007noreply@blogger.com
