It is now named the Fitzpatrick Hospital for the Psychologically Ill, but even with a new name, the secrets of the hospitals past comes back to haunt the patients. Danielle Fitzpatrick (Jennifer Tilly), the hospital administrator, must find out what these secrets are...but she might be risking her patients lives by doing so...maybe even her own. With mysterious patients Elaine Harley (Blythe Danner) and George Davenport (Ryan Gosling), Danielle's husband Gregg (Emilio Esteves), and Danielle's adopted daughter Carey (Mary Elizabeth Winstead), and creepy nurse Greta (Naomi Watts). Also with Kathy Bates, Sandra Bullock, Paul Dano, Don Chedale, Steve Carrell, Justin Long, Uma Thurman, Toni Collette, Daryl Hannah, Mary-Louise Parker and Lindsay Lohan.

What the press would say:

The beautiful Jennifer Tilly reminds us why she was nominated for an Oscar. Any director could have made this into a splatter-fest, however Tony Scott and writer Ehren Kruger made it into a unique and original horror film with heart. Everyone actor is on their best from Mary Elizabeth Winstead to Blythe Danner. Naomi Watts is great as the nurse and brings a terrifying sense just by her presence. It is nice to see that just because it is a Hospital for the Psychologically Ill not everyone is old, the patients, Paul Dano, Daryl Hannah, Uma Thurman, Mary-Louise Parker, Steve Carell and Toni Collette, Ryan Gosling and Blythe Danner are terrific. Extremely recommended.
