Joanne Everett Somehow I managed to stick this movie out until 20 minutes before the end when I got so bored I had to switch it off. At first I thought it was an out and out parody because I couldn't believe that anyone would release a movie with such terrible acting in it. But no, the writer and director were serious and the budget was wasted on this abomination rather than going to a decent director who could have made something of a measly budget (it has been done before).To the reviewer that said they are a fan of this genre and then goes on to sing this pile of crap's praises, you must have watched some seriously dire horror films in your lifetime. And to all those who gave it more than a couple of stars, clearly your either getting paid to bump up the reviews you know someone in the film, or you're being ironic and the joke's on us (Ha ha). And I'll tell you what is a joke, this film.DO NOT BOTHER WASTING YOUR TIME WATCHING THE HOSPITAL 2013. WATCH SOMETHING, ANYTHING, ELSE.

TdSmth5 Yes folks, this is a low budget independent horror. There are no anorexic Hollywood actors, no fancy CGI effects. And it is extreme horror, this isn't PG-13 stuff for teens.Some girls drive around when their car breaks down. Someone else arrives. Next thing we know, they are tortured and raped. And that's just the intro. A college girl travels to a town to investigate the rumors surrounding the local abandoned hospital. Everyone in town encourages her to leave and forget about it. She doesn't. You can guess what happens to her. Except that she isn't killed but kept alive by the bad guy.5 girls take a paranormal investigation tour sponsored by some sleazy paranormal investigator. He hands the girls over to 2 guys who'll do the tour. The tour will be several days at the hospital, where the groundskeeper is...the bad guy from the intros.Turns out the 2 guys aren't just interested in hooking up with the girls but they have much more sinister plans for them. And it gets very nasty, let's put it that way. Eventually cops get involved as well as the father of the college girl and her sister. But there are some more twists to the story.As a low budget movie, you should know to expect uneven acting, poor lighting, problems with sound, normal looking people, etc. But what I didn't expect was how extreme and graphic this movie would be. There lots of violence, gore, nudity, blood, and other bodily fluids. But they actually bothered to come up with a good story and script. Acting isn't all around terrible, several actors here do a good job. I'm going to give The Hospital high marks for the sheer guts to make a movie like this and for the cast for being committed to doing some pretty nasty stuff. You can't really review and rate a movie like this by Hollywood standards. Overall, a courageous attempt and if you know what you're getting yourself into, it's even enjoyable.

Paul Magne Haakonsen Right, the movie's cover/poster actually sold the movie quite nicely, especially because it was the most professional and best part of the movie. Already less than a mere couple of minutes into the movie, you know that it is going to suck.The story in "The Hospital" is about a group of young women who pay to stay at an allegedly haunted hospital with a some paranormal investigators who are shooting an episode for a TV show. But things are not at all what they appear at the hospital.Story-wise, then there were potential in the storyline, but it was horribly executed and even worse portrayed on the screen by the people hired to be in the movie. This was the epitome of wooden and rigid acting.There were so many things in the movie that were just downright horrible to witness, starting with the title track song. Wow, that was just laughable. And the effects in the movie were very low-tech and just came off as way too fake.For a horror movie, then "The Hospital" was frightfully devoid of anything even remotely scary.I will give some credit though, the fact that the movie makers did manage to put together a coherent enough movie on a budget like that. Yes, this was low budget, but you could see that the director was pouring his heart into the movie. And thumbs up for that. Just a shame that there was so many other things working against the overall movie. The reason for me rating "The Hospital" 2 out of 10 stars and not a mere 1 star is because that it was clear that a lot of heart and effort were actually put into the movie on some aspects.If you enjoy horror movies, then stay well clear of this movie. I assume that you might find some enjoyment if you actually know someone who participated in the making of this movie in one way or another.

Nick Huntsman But in the best of ways. I tried my best to avoid spoilers on this film as much as possible before viewing, because all I knew ahead of time was that it was full of plot twists. I also knew going into this, it was going to be disturbing to watch. It didn't disappoint. This is a film in the category of "We don't give a f**k how you feel, you're gonna watch this and you're gonna be sickened."From a critical standpoint, I have to point out that most of the acting is sub-par, but some shining stars in this film are Daniel Emery Taylor, Jim O'Rear, Jason Crowe, and Alicia Clark. The kills are nauseating, and some of them actually hilarious. Some of the production value seems to be cheesy as well, but what can you expect from a soon to be cult classic B-movie?From an artistic standpoint, I have to give this film a thumbs up. If someone can make a film like Hostel, then why can't they make a film like The Hospital?All in all, if you want to get some of your friends together and have an unusual viewing experience, do yourself a favor and check this one out. You won't walk away from this feeling the same ever again.
