Review: "The Ward" (2011)- written July 21, 2011

Now this was an excellent movie, Scary and Awesome. At first it strongly resembled an episode from Season 5 of "Supernatural" called "Sam, Interrupted". This does take place in a mental institution so there were some things that seemed typical. Such as the doctors trying to 'help' are only making things worse for the patients, but let's talk about what the movie is. John Carpenter's "The Ward" has one of the scariest faces in horror. Something is attacking the patients of the ward, doctors and patients are all quiet about the disappearances. It doesn't always scare you in a typical way in fact it rarely or never does. Here is how I would describe the movie: It's like a scary ride but at the end you are given $5, then a dollar is taken away from you. Though a dollar was metaphorically lost, it is still a great movie. Now the end of the movie, and I mean the last second not just 'the end', is GREAT! It is what takes that dollar away but it is so Unique! You NEVER, EVER, see the main actress do THAT. Warning of disturbing death scenes. Have fun,...
