A gothic ghost story set in an insane asylum. The tables are turned when the asylum’s chief psychiatrist, Dr. Miranda Grey (a pre-Monster Halle Berry) sees a ghost on a rainy drive home one night and finds herself a patient in her own asylum. Among the patients, Grey struggles to recount her meeting with the ghost and what message it was trying to convey. Along the way, a dreadful story of kidnapped women brutalized forms with her husband (Charles Dutton) and the local sheriff (John Carroll Lynch) implicated. With the help of fellow patient Chloe, a perfect Penelope Cruz, and Dr. Pete Graham (Robert Downey Jr) Miranda unlocks the true story and faces her own brutal act. Directed by Mathieu Kassovitz, Gothika is a good movie with enough thrills among its twists and turns to make it worth watching.
My rating 7 out of 10.
