The Ward
No one believes the claims of a young woman (Amber Heard) that a dead patient is stalking the residents of the psychiatric facility. As she struggles to escape, she will uncover a truth far more dangerous and horrifying than anyone could have imagined.

John Carpenter has made his first unintentional comedy.

The movie's fluidity of motion is intoxicating. It's hard to argue that the so-so material is up to [Carpenter's] highest standards, but it can also be easily forgiven, and even enjoyed.

The Ward, while not stellar by any means, is absolutely worth your time.

Mr. Carpenter manages to overcome all of the setbacks to churn out something half decent - That in itself is pretty thrilling to watch.

The Ward should send some chills down your spine, but it probably won't stay with you.

The shocks mostly consist of figures suddenly rising up in the background, or thunderclaps from a seemingly endless thunderstorm.

The Ward might not bode too well for Carpenter's come back, but he did do good things with what he had to work with (clichéd story and script).
July 11, 2011
An aggressively plain spook story that favors jump moments over sustained tension and winds up falling back on a particularly tired twist.
July 08, 2011
Carpenter's economical but mundane chiller is possessed more by previous ghoul-friend flicks than it is by his better work.
July 08, 2011
A dull, by-the-numbers psych-ward horror thriller that's sadly a lot closer in quality to "Sucker Punch" than "Shutter Island."
July 08, 2011
The horror master's first film in nine years is not the comeback we had wished.
July 08, 2011
Carpenter has made his approximation of a cheap, twisty, shock-filled modern horror movie, and he has lost all but faint sighs of his minimalist swagger in the process.
