gpeltz Spoiler Alert, as I will be talking about, Room 6, (2006) Directed and co written by Michael Hurst. Mark A Altman also gets writing credits. The movie is watchable. It strives for a mood of altered realities. Ground covered in far superior films such as, Jacob's Ladder (1990), and, The Sentinel (1997) now throw in a good amount of "Silent Hill" or Session 9 (2001) All the leads are good, they include the stars, Nick and Amy, played by Shane Brolly and Christine Taylor, Separated in a car crash, He is taken to Hell, and she is left to look for him. Jerry O'Connell, plays Lucas, also involved in the crash, and searching for his daughter who was also taken to a place unknown. To say Amy was drawn into some alternate world, of demons and monsters, would be understating the case. The movie kept hitting all the right notes, The effects were efficient, and the music was charged. The only thing that did not work in this movie was, any sense of reason. Through many hints and flashbacks, we see that Amy has to face her guilt for committing a terrible act as a very young girl. There is no real explanation why Nick has to suffer. Oh well, it doesn't matter, what does matter is that it kept me watching. Eight out of Ten "Mysterious Hospitals" Stars

Woodyanders Troubled young schoolteacher Amy Roberts (a sound and sympathetic performance by the lovely Christine Taylor) and her nice fiancé Nick (likable Shane Bolly) get into a car accident. Nick gets whisked away to a nearby hospital. Amy tries to find Nick to no avail. Assisted by the friendly Lucas Dylan (an appealing turn by Jerry O'Connell), Amy discovers that Nick was taken to a mysterious hospital called St. Rosemary's that burned down a long time ago. Can Amy and Lucas save Nick from this hellish place? Director/co-writer Mike Hurst relates the compellingly vague and spooky premise at a deliberate pace and does an expert job of gradually building a genuinely eerie, unsettling and disorienting atmosphere which becomes more increasingly freaky and nightmarish as the narrative progresses towards its nerve-jangling conclusion. The fine acting from a capable cast helps a lot: Taylor and Bolly make for engaging leads, O'Connell does well in a change-of-pace straight role, plus there's excellent support from Chloe Moretz as helpful little girl Melissa Newman, Mary Pat Gleason as the stern, fearsome Nurse Holiday, Ellie Cornell as Melissa's scruffy white trash mother Sarah, Kane Hodder as a nasty, menacing homeless guy, Lisa Ann Walter as the mean, sarcastic Sergeant Burch, and Marshall Bell as Amy's sickly dad. Raymond Stella's slick, shadowy cinematography, Joe Kraemer's shivery score, and the clammy, claustrophobic hospital setting all further enhance the flesh-crawling weirded-out mood. Moreover, the resolution at the very end is surprisingly poignant. A pleasingly creepy fright feature.

kai ringler well i'm not quite actually sure about this one folks...... i think that they had a really good idea behind the movie, i liked the car crash scene, but the zombies , the way they looked well i've seen a lot better from other horror movies, the story well let's just say that it could have been better, i think the ending sucked. the main character was way too squeamish for my tastes. there are worse movies out there, except this one left the viewer, me,,, with more questions than answers, and i really don't care for a movie that does that. i did like the boiler room scenes i thought they were very stylish, and in the special features on the DVD, they mention that it was the same boiler room that was used in the original nightmare on elm st. so basically i've seen a lot better,, this movie basically deals with angels, demons, heaven , hell, and pergatory,, the part where something in her childhood happened to her when she was 12, about her father was brilliant ,, but not how they did it in the end i thought.

slstewart48 Room 6... maybe one of the other rooms would have been more interesting, but this one isn't even bad enough to be entertaining! If you must watch it, just watch the first and last fifteen minutes and you'll get the plot. Rod Serling's Twilight Zone did 1/2 hour shows very successfully for years, and before the invention of many special effects we take for granted today. Even the characters who are supposed to be ghoulish and frightening seem to be walking through their parts. The end is anticlimactic. Most times a bad horror film can get away without a message, but with the overused storyline, terrible acting, lack of special effects, and awful directing; there should have been one. Here's my suggestion for the message: Room 6 should be missed at all costs; however, could it prove useful to cinema students as a lesson of what not to do.
