Best movie of this year hands down!

Redundant and unnecessary.

The film creates a perfect balance between action and depth of basic needs, in the midst of an infertile atmosphere.

It is a whirlwind of delight --- attractive actors, stunning couture, spectacular sets and outrageous parties.

And all I can say is that it was madness. Not sure if any other reviewed was at the same showing but they actually had to call the ambulance because a few girls passed out and were hyperventilating. Lets just say it was pretty gory. The plot itself was pretty basic. A couple of young musicians work in the cafeteria to make ends meet. Bad storm results in a power outage. Then all the inmates are running amok since the doors are opened due to the lack of power. Total mayhem ensures. I enjoyed it. The story like I said was pretty basic, with a few twists here and their along with some suspense. I gave it a 7 because I like the mayhem. It made me feel like that's what would happen under those same circumstances. I am sure you will enjoy this film just don't watch it if you have a weak stomach, or after eating a big meal lol

What happens when the lunatics take over the asylum? Well, you get one suck ass movie. In 1989, in Washington, the friends George, Max and Ricky are aspirant musicians that play in a band in their leisure time. They work as cooks in the Sans Asylum to earn money to pay their bills, including renting a studio to record their songs. The asylum is located in an isolated area and is monitored by a team led by the security guard J.B. The deranged inmates are criminals and they take pills to stay calm. One day, George has a concert during the night but J.B. asks him to arrive early in the morning to receive the supplies for the kitchen. George leaves his girlfriend Lynn without sleeping and heads to the asylum. While he is preparing the meals for the insane inmates with his colleagues, there is a storm and a power outage in the area and the monitoring system fails. With the mental hospital in the darkness, the inmates led by the cruel Harry Green attack the guards and staff. George and the other kitchen workers hide from the horde of violent madmen. Will they survive? (Written by Claudio Carvalho, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil) Despite the creepy atmosphere and some creepy visuals, Asylum Blackout fails due to a lackluster plot, dog poo dialogue, and terrible acting. If you want something similar to this go out and play Batman: Arkham Asylum. Not only cause it's Batman, but also because it kicks ass and it does this type of story really well, where as this film does not.

First of all, I get the "Blackout" thing, but that doesn't mean that the screen has to be so dark that you can't even see what is happening during the whole movie. That being said, I think asylums or mental hospitals are great place to set horror movies, but this one manages to make even those creepy places unscary. That's probably because the Asylum is not believable at all. The patients don't seem to have any particular diagnosed problem, they're just crazy, creepy and violent. All of them. They even have the same pills. There is no staff in the hospital except for the guard whose only job seems to be to yell at patients and strangle them and the cooks. it's not just the hospital. There's obvious plot holes throughout the movie that make the whole thing ridiculously unbelievable. Like the girl cook that suddenly disappears when the blackout actually happens or the reason why the police didn't show up until hours later when they told them there was a f*cking decapitated body in the hallway. So shitty photography, shitty plot, shitty characters and not even a tiny bit scary.

In 1989, in Washington, the friends George (Rupert Evans), Max (Kenny Doughty) and Ricky (Joseph Kennedy) are aspirant musicians that play in a band in their leisure time. They work as cooks in the Sans Asylum to earn money to pay their bills, including renting a studio to record their songs. The asylum is located in an isolated area and is monitored by a team led by the security guard J.B. (Dave Legeno). The deranged inmates are criminals and they take pills to stay calm.

George leaves his girlfriend Lynn (Anna Skellern) without sleeping and heads to the asylum. While he is preparing the meals for the insane inmates with his colleagues, there is a storm and a power outage in the area and the monitoring system fails. With the mental hospital in the darkness, the inmates led by the cruel Harry Green (Richard Brake) attack the guards and staff. George and the other kitchen workers hide from the horde of violent madmen. Will they survive?"The Incident" is a sadistic torture film with an unclear and unintelligible conclusion. The situation is absurd since there are just a few guards to control violent criminals and the security is based on systems that stop working with a power outage. Further, how could take one hour to the police to reach the institution in a rebellion? Every situation is a pretext for torture, violence and gore. My vote is three.Title (Brazil): "Desespero" ("Despair")
