After undergoing surgery in a hospital, a woman finds herself waking up in a strange underground facility with other patients trying out a mysterious antidote that will supposedly heal any kind of malady or injury, and the longer they stay there find the brutal procedures holding a darker secret than they expected.

This was a rather solid thriller with a few minor factors. One of the main positives here is the fact that there's so much to like with the setup and atmosphere of the situation. The idea of taking her hostage and keeping everything so secretive as they carry out a series of surprisingly intense setups that offer up some gruesome scenarios and surgical practices that go alongside the treatment they dole out to the different patients under their care. The entire setup is unnerving and chilling with how this unravels as the constant defiance and questioning simply bring about more time there which enables even more questions to arise the longer she's held there with their bizarre treatments. This includes all the brutal treatments that are carried out against her and the others which are quite fun with all the impressive gore on display during these scenes, which all make for a fun time here. There are a few issues with the film. The main problem is that the entire time this becomes frustrating how obvious the final twist is going to be. This takes the idea that the final half is going to be a grand, shocking revelation about her and what's supposed to be doing there but this is instead plainly obvious what's going on the second it keeps hammering home who all the strange visitors are who work around the hospital start showing up in the flashbacks that tell who she is and what's she's done in her past that are supposed to make her twist somewhat shocking but only signal the obvious. Indeed, that also highlights the other obvious factor in that the majority of the film features the same overall pattern of an escape attempt, punishment and then a conversation with another patient that spurs her to try another attempt. None of this is interesting or thrilling and tends to hold this one back considerably.

Rated Unrated/R: Graphic Violence, Graphic Language and Brief Nudity.

A woman is admitted into a hospital for emergency surgery, but then awakens trapped in a bizarre medical facility where patients are treated like lab rats, mutilated over and over again, then healed by doctors, as if they were in some afterlife version of The Man Behind the Sun. Is this heaven? It is hell? Or is it somewhere in between?

Director Peter Daskaloff also made Girls After Dark and Sex and the Single Alien, while writer Matt Toronto was the writer and director of Face 2 Face. They've put together a tense film that really leads one to question the answers to the fate of its characters. Yet without giving anything away, the ending feels like a cop-out after the film has painted itself into a corner. Ah well, you can't expect everything, right?

Probably the best-known actor in this movie would be Ashlynn Yennie, who you may recognize as Jenny, the rear section in The Human Centipede. Louis Mandylor, who was in the My Big Fat Greek Wedding series as Nick Portokalos is also in this. He was also the sheriff in Rambo: Last Blood. In fact, there are plenty of Greek actors in the cast.

This is such an idiotic movie. It's like Sartre's "No Exit," where hell is other people, but with a boring twist.

The "protagonist," if you can call her that, comes back from hell after the boyfriend she murdered absolves her, contradicting the doctor's claim that there's no absolution in hell.

Pass on this one. It's stupid.

This movie name is wrong written by director I think his name is the hell pain. This movie was not good dont waste your time on such movie. What can be a bigger sin than killing a man. It was no accident he slashed his throat not as if she pushed him and he died...If she truly regretted she should have given herself to the police and let law take its course but no she did everything in her power to conceal her crime like a true criminal. Putting candles and flowers at the grave, what does that achieve!!

This is not bad and the clues are there for you figure out the twist. It has enough going for it but it does not have the huge reveal that makes this a classic.

The green screen ending was so painful to watch. The dialogue was so so so so terrible. This might unintentionally be the worst movie ever created. So she's standing in a room and some guy just drops hanging from the ceiling? They're not even trying to be reasonable with this. I am just confused who are the people who tortured them are they even human? Like what human would endlessly torture other humans? It does not make sense for the woman to confess her sins to the doctors. The doctors present themselves as criminals who perform cruel experiments on unwilling prisoners. She has no reason to trust them. Without trust she has no reason to talk to them about her past life. She doesn't even know that this might be the right thing to do in her situation. It is not being made clear to her that she is being judged and that this is a form of punishment. From her point of view the doctors are torturing innocent people. They are the bad guys. And resisting bad guys is good. So by not cooperating with them she is actually doing the right thing from her point of view. She only gets to repent her sins, because she figures out the lies and her ex boyfriend wants to torture her out of revenge. The entire movie is just her having an out of body experience when she died for 15 seconds. I can't be the only person who is confused af on why she just smacked the medicine out the doctors hand. Idk why but it seems kinda stupid.
