Fangoria Frightfest Presents - Fragile Overview
As the new night nurse at a soon to be abandoned children's hospital readies the last group of orphans to leave, it becomes increasingly clear that these are not normal children. Something living in the hospital, something the children call the mechanical girl; has a terrifying hold over them and will stop at nothing to keep them in the hospital with her forever.
Horror Movies Customer Reviews
In hosptial for children, many things seem to be going wrong. The story begins with a child who is injured and with no one to explain this evil, and the story gets darker from here. Apparently this thing, whatever it is, has been talked about for years in hospital and things have worsened in recent times. It corresponds to a move that is taking place as this hospital to another, and seems to get worse as time progresses. A nurse will close on this, too, frightened by somethingsaw the boys and talk about seeing a girl, a young mechanic who lives on land abandoned hospital. Of all the films Fangoria, this was to be the most frightening. There were parts in it that actually dug their way into your spine and made you cringe, and I personally did not expect. What I expected was that many others gave you, campy experience that reminded me of something I saw when I was younger, but no. This was the film that I cansay that actually made me feel like I was watching a real horror.
What made this film were the setting, the atmosphere, the way everything was set, and actors. The setting was a hospital that looked like a horrible place with a lot of bad memories, and this film plays out. It creates a great background and this place offers even more as the world grows dark. The local people act well, too, and this is a great thing considering how you're counting on childrento do things that sometimes lose. Here, do not do great. And finally, there's the story.
While you think you know what's going really fast, you do not. He has a great twist at the end that is twisted and turned, and this made me think "that was great" when I'm done. I expected the ending to be much darker, but that did not come out, but the way in which all the hunting level rather than on it. Really, with the cost of these films aremuch is really made up for the way things were.
Should I give this movie a high level because, in reality, it was worth the time I was wathcing it.
Scary Enough - R. Schultz - ChicagoThis film does not break any new ground like that ghost story. But it is quite scary. His portentous sadness reveals his secrets in tight rubber-band pieces that snap back at you - as you know you should. But you never know exactly when or where you hit.
Calista Flockhart plays a part more or less in a note - the note of haunted melancholy. It seems haunted, even when you arrive in this island of fog off the coast of England to assume his role as a nurse for childrenhospital. However, in the director commentary included on this DVD, director of the points that there is a reason for her to be removed, and concern from the outset, and that reason includes a second mystery to the film to unfold.
The conclusion of the film is not quite jibe with the events that are terrorizing the remaining children and staff in this hospital closing. But you can not expect strict logic of a ghost.
My main disappointment with the movie is that itwas shot in a real abandoned hospital. I got this DVD hoping that some real old, crumbling hospital was used as the setting for the infestation, and it would become as much a character in the film, like the old, closed Danvers State Mental Hospital has become the terrifying "Session 9 movie."
However, the "hospital" used here is clearly a combination of scenery and the creation of CGI. In the commentary, the director explains that a proper English boarding school abandoned has been usedas the façade of the hospital to assume that Flockhart was approaching. But they could not find or afford any suitable environment for the same haunting, so they had to build one. Too bad, because a ghost is all emanate from its original environment that can not be transplanted into any bed preparation. The location scout for this film should probably have come to Chicago to take into account the vast Victorian Cook County Hospital, abandoned for years, as a place ofthe film. Or maybe the film crew was afraid he would find too many real ghosts waiting for them in such a place.
GREAT Ghost Story - David Curtis - Maine, USAI just finished watching this movie and I am very satisfied. If you like a scary movie ghost story without a lot of special effects and bustle, this is for you. The atmosphere was dark and creepy and the plot is well thought out. I am very glad I bought this movie.
Much better than the latest horror films... - C. Harmon - south carolinaThe horror genre was one of my favorites, but then most of them have become so stupid or cruel as to be nauseating. Gore is not afraid is simply disgusting. This film is much higher than today's typical horror / ghost films. Amy (Calista Flockhart) is a nurse hired for the night shift in a pediatric hospital that is being settled. Most children have already been moved to another facility, but Amy makes friends with Maggie, a troubled young girl, who claim the other can be difficult. MaggieAmy says that Charlotte - who she refers to as the 'girl' mechanical - lives up to the second and closed it quickly becomes clear that Maggie is afraid of Charlotte.
'Fragile' is disturbing and creepy from start to finish, with very little gore and a lot of scary and disturbing elements. The ending has an unexpected twist regarding the identity of the 'mechanical girl', with one touching directly taken from the story of 'Sleeping Beauty'.
Calista Flockhartturns in a great performance as a nurse Amy, who goes down in history with a troubled past. Yasmin Murphy, the young man playing Maggie certainly has a great future in film. I was surprised to see Ivana Boquer, the young star of 'Pan's Labyrinth' in a small role, not talking, but very important. If you like horror / ghost stories, 'Fragile' is one of the few worth your time!
