This nifty little Australian chiller allows our favorite vomit spewer to ACT! Linda Blair plays a nurse in a COMA-type hospital where patients check in, but don't check... well, you get the cliche. Some certain doctors are performing evil deeds, but not necessarily of the supernatural calliber. The story keeps the events in realistic situations and Blair wisely underplays the terror of what she's uncovering as the outsider. As she learns more of the hospitals secrets, the dark corridors and cold personel make for a truly unnerving setting. The films climax definitely had me biting my nails as our heroine tries to escape once her cover is blown. With the exception of a brief nude scene with Blair (tisk tisk), this is a higer end made-for-television type thriller I wish I could see more of on Blair's resume. Bottom line... creepy, quick moving and satisfying.
