Hospital - Thailand

          Director:  Pipat Jomkoh

          Year:  2005

          Plot:  "Three friends decide to go to the countryside for a little holiday and then after a car accident they end up in a haunted hospital."

          This movie is only 57 minutes long.  I decided to watch it because it had a 3 out of 5 rating, and was relatively short.  Though I wasn't to sure about how good it would really be.  The plot that was stated really didn't seem too great.  A haunted hospital isn't likely to bring any good storylines because those who die in a hospital aren't very likely to be vengeful.  That idea also kept true with this movie.  The ghost aren't out to kill, they are just there and show themselves in some rather bad timing.

          It turned out that Hospital is a a rather good movie.  It has its points where it gets a little jump out of the audience, but it also has a very well developed storyline.  It starts out where everything is fine, even after the crash, things seem normal.  Slowly though you can pick up little things that don't seem right.  I was rather shocked to find that I didn't see the ending coming.  Looking back I understand the subtle hints I picked up on without having actually figured out the truth.  This aspect for me makes Hospital a very good movie.

          This movie like the Indonesian movie Mirror brought me to tears.  The ending was so touching that even though it was a horror movie the rest of the time, the ending didn't seem out of place.  I didn't feel like the ending was cheap, but that it was actually really touching and meaningful.

          I suggest you watch this movie.  The storyline is really well done allowing you to try and piece things together on your own.  Everyone may not like this movie because of its low amount of scares and "sappy" ending, but it is definitely worth your time to give the movie a try on your own.  You might be able to watch this here.
