Dark Asylum
A psychologist is accidently locked in a asylum with a serial killer chaseing her. As cheesy as it sounds, I kinda got into this flick. The acting was pretty cool, especially with Larry Drake playing the role of the psycho. There was an average amount of gore, and a good flow of death scenes, not to mention weapons. A pretty neat flick and worth a watch. 4 out of 5.
