it is finally so absorbing because it plays like a lyrical road odyssey that’s also a detective story.

I saw this movie before reading any reviews, and I thought it was very funny. I was very surprised to see the overwhelmingly negative reviews this film received from critics.

A lot of perfectly good film show their cards early, establish a unique premise and let the audience explore a topic at a leisurely pace, without much in terms of surprise. this film is not one of those films.

It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.

Asylum, there have to be a dozen films by that name. It kind of makes you wonder why they bother, is it so hard to come up with something original?This one however is very memorable, though I'm not entirely sure for the best reasons.Imagine a really quite dire horror movie starring Bruce Payne and Stephen Rea with a side story about the movies creation and comedy narration over it similiar to Mystery Science Theatre 3000. That's what this movie is, and it's totally bizzare.So it tells the story of a swat team who are tasked with going into an Asylum and the whole thing is dreadful from plot to the actors who range from bad to bored. The saving grace is the narration and truth be told some of it is genuinely hilarious.But it's not so good to make this a watchable 90 minutes, the movie itself is really damn bad but the narration mocks it every step of the way and often speaks exactly what you're thinking.It's hard to identify who this is aimed at, all I can say is that it isn't a horror and does have enough comedy to make it watchable.........barely.The Good:Some genuine laughsCaroline FordThe Bad:Bruce PayneSO many films called AsylumPlot is a messThings I Learnt From This Movie:Chris Brown jokes, still funnyI will not be able to look at Stephen Rea again without thinking lesbian Bob DylanIf an ally gets pulled into a fridge by unknown forces.........shoot the fridge

I don't know what is going on here, it's a film within a film, and I only managed to watch 50 minutes before I had to skip to the end.It's simply put the worst film I've ever seen ever, I do enjoy films, particularly horror and I can be quite forgiving. But this film is so bad, after year of using IMDb, I've made a profile just to write this.This film is terrible, and should be seen by no one ever. It's not even a train wreck as you could at least have some sorta morbid interest in seeing that.Avoid this film, do not watch this film, it's not a horror, and it's not a comedy it's just bad.

I've used IMDb for years now, and have suffered through many a terrible movie during those years. This is the first comment I've made. This is certainly one of the top three worst movies I have ever seen in my life--probably number one.Have you ever watched a flick with one of those friends that talks and makes stupid jokes throughout the whole thing? Did you enjoy that? No? Then you won't enjoy this movie. Imagine that friend, only a million times worse. It is... I can't even think of a word. I'm inclined to create a new word to describe just how terrible this flick is. My head hurt after watching it from all the brain cells that committed suicide.Do not watch this. Don't even read any more reviews on it. If you took the time to read this one, you have already wasted too much time on Asylum. It's not even ironically bad. There is nothing that redeems this flick. The director should be exiled and barred from even thinking of producing something that a human being might see.

This could have been a good movie, the plot was good for an horror movie but what ruined it for me was the stupid comments like those idiots at mk3000 or something, the ones that critic and laugh at a movie and are so bad doing so. I really hated MK3000 and i was very disappointed that this movie went this direction. Going from the main plot to theses 2 morons and back to the main plot while you hear idiot comments true out the movie. If they would have scraped that part the movie would have been OK not amazing but OK.And then they wonder why illegal downloads are so presentable on the internet and almost everyone does it now a days, maybe its because people are tired of paying for movies that suck so bad like this, i sadly paid 6$ for this crap and watched 15 minutes of it before i turned it off.
