Review of Stonehearst Asylum (2014) by Isla B — 06 Jan 2017
With Asylum in the title you'd expect something deranged, absurd & shocking. However this film got lost somewhere between a gothic romance & suspenseful insane thriller. It does a seriously good job of keeping you torn between mental patient "Dr.
Lamb" with his carefree methods vs. imprisoned-real-doctor Dr. Salt & his barbaric early Victorian practices. Also the twist at the end was surprising enough to merit a positive review however I can totally understand why many are saying it's an "insipid disappointment".
