Driving home one night during torrential rain Miranda gets involved in an accident and the sees a girl standing in the middle of the road. She then wakes up in the same asylum but not as a doctor but as an inmate and she is accused of killing her husband brutally.
Confused, delirious and in a state of shock she continues to have visions of the girl. Her former colleagues such as Robert Downey Jr try to do what they can knowing her husband was also an esteemed colleague of theirs, Dr Grey realises that the visions might be trying to her something and everything in the hospital is not what it seems.
The film tries to tread a line between keeping serious and falling off the rails and maybe does not always succeed. I doubt a psychiatrist is likely to end up as a patient in her own hospital but Berry tries to be believable but the script can be preposterous and dialogue is not always good.
Yet the film is engaging enough with enough thrills and chills to keep it going although you kind of guess what the dark secrets could be.
