What a waste of my time!!!

Self-important, over-dramatic, uninspired.

Highly Overrated But Still Good

If you're interested in the topic at hand, you should just watch it and judge yourself because the reviews have gone very biased by people that didn't even watch it and just hate (or love) the creator. I liked it, it was well written, narrated, and directed and it was about a topic that interests me.

***Spoilers Ahead*** Abandoned Dead started off GREAT & had my full attention.It was GOOD & CREEPY.The long, dark hallway, the hospital equipment moving by itself, the stuffed doll come to life, the creepy caretaker, somebody or something calling out the security guards name, etc, etc, etc. Even the pizza guy was a creep.I was on the edge of my seat until the scene where the security guard went into the room that had the corpse laying there, looking like she once was wearing a sleeping mask that somebody used as a stencil, cut around it & removed the skin.After this, I got a feeling the movie was going downhill & it did.It took a straight nosedive from there.It's like somebody hit a switch & it went from GREAT to garbage, it went from being a Horror flick to....... I don't even know what to call it.If they would've kept the story going about the creeped out security guard rather than switching to a hypnotized mental patient, Abandoned Dead would've been perfect.Another thing I really liked about the movie was that it was set in an addiction clinic (1st time I've ever seen that) Every movie I've seen where a security guard is watching over a building overnight, it's set in a mental hospital, hospital or a huge building.Maybe that's what made it so scary as well, it wasn't set in a HUGE building.Abandoned Dead started off with GREAT potential.The 1st half was awesome but the 2nd half completely falls apart so I wouldn't recommend anybody go see it unless you want to be disappointed like I was (HUGE, HUGE, HUGE disappointment) 1 star just for the 1st half of the movie

Directed by Mark Curran, Abandoned Dead is a pretty great suspense thriller. When first watched as a horror film, I would have rated this lower, but despite the name and couple of goryish scenes, it's more of an introspective look into the life of a security guard who is working an extra shift, and has to deal with some psychological mystery surrounding the place she is guarding. There is some nice camera-work and lighting, some good acting, and everyone involved did a great job from cast to crew. Sarah Nicklin does a great job as the main character Rachel, who plays the security guard the movie focuses on. The atmosphere was great for what they were trying to accomplish with this film. I would definitely give this a watch if you are into suspenseful thrillers, and keep an eye out for more films from Mark Curran and team.

watched this the other night and I thought it was awesome. I thought for its budget it really did well. music was great! if your a horror fan you need to watch this :) wont give anything away but it is full of some creepy moments :) really like the actual story line with the security guard out of her comfort zone at night. it has a great twist at the end but all the way though I couldn't get what was going to happen or how things would turn out. didn't like the pizza guy, as in his attitude not him being in it, ha ha. if you get a chance I would recommend giving this a go. as I said it is for any true horror fan. hope you enjoy

Its been a good movie till the very end and has a twist in the end but i wont spoil it for you as its worth the watch.To start with, the camera work has been superb and the lightening has been kept low intentionally to give it the cold horror movie feel. The camera angles have been brilliantly worked and the camera's just didn't stick to a single view for long. The actors have done justice to their roles and their expressions were in accord with the scenes and didn't go flat at any time.As far as the story goes, it starts off with a tiring guard(damn! she's hot) returning from work when she is asked for an extra shift in may-field addiction clinic. She is not alone in there as paranormal disturbances begin to manifest themselves and keeping her psychological condition in view, she is surely in for some hard time. The story seems a good base for a horror movie and haven't been stretched a lot to fill in the time. This movie is a brilliant motivation and inspiration for upcoming producers and actors to watch and learn the different methods to keep the movie lively and moving at a good pace. Also this movie is a better example of how to keep up the standard while keeping the budget in view,as its an exceptional effort for being a low budget movie.I'll recommend this one!!
