Lighting = awful, camera work=awful, sound=awful, editing = awful, sfx = awful, acting = awful, direction = obviously awful, and production = must have a mental health issue to finance this.
According to IMDb the estimated budget was $100,000 – NO WAY. At most a few hundred bucks for fake blood and a few props – unless members of the cast were paid – which seems highly unlikely.
From the opening title which is so badly produced, edited and encoded that it jerks and jumps its way overlaid on top of equally poor quality video, to (what one presumes and hopes is) the end, it lumbers along, struggling to find any continuity whatsoever. Totally random shots and people appear with no link to the previous scene and well, it's just awful from start to finish.
Goodness know what 'equipment' they used, but the image is of such a poor quality that it could have been shot on an old smartphone. Either that, or whoever was the camera operator didn't have a clue what they were doing.
The lighting was direct and harsh, and it seemed as though there was only one light used, although the colour temperature of the light ranged from orange to blue – with no discernible reason for the change.
The sound sounds as though it was recorded on a Dictaphone placed 'somewhere' in the room, with much of the overacted dialogue remaining unheard because of the sonic ambiance of the room. Echo-a-mundo! The few post-production 'effects' were so bad it was as though a five year-old had been employed to do them.
Really – what were they thinking!! Absolutely everything is awful with this film. I have seen a thousand times better amateur holiday videos than this trash.
Looking for something positive to say about this film is a struggle – and that's being generous. Perhaps the only thing was that there were some very nice naked breasts – apart form that, nothing at all.

Somehow I managed to stick this movie out until 20 minutes before the end when I got so bored I had to switch it off. At first I thought it was an out and out parody because I couldn't believe that anyone would release a movie with such terrible acting in it. But no, the writer and director were serious and the budget was wasted on this abomination rather than going to a decent director who could have made something of a measly budget (it has been done before).
To the reviewer that said they are a fan of this genre and then goes on to sing this pile of crap's praises, you must have watched some seriously dire horror films in your lifetime. And to all those who gave it more than a couple of stars, clearly your either getting paid to bump up the reviews you know someone in the film, or you're being ironic and the joke's on us (Ha ha). And I'll tell you what is a joke, this film.
DO NOT BOTHER WASTING YOUR TIME WATCHING THE HOSPITAL 2013. WATCH SOMETHING, ANYTHING, ELSE.

I've seen a lot of 'b'movies in my life. Some of them were alright, other were pretty bad, and some were plain bad.
But this? This was just plain terrible. NOTHING in this movie was good. It actually made me angry when I watched it. The acting is beyond terrible, there is no storyline, it's also very misogynistic.
Also the 'special effects' were SO bad, it's not even funny. After I watched this, I felt like 'The Room' deserved 10 Oscars. I still can't believe I watched it out, curiosity? Maybe? Maybe I kept hoping it would get better? I don't know. I'm sad I wasted more than an hour of my life on that crap. I wish I could get that precious time back, and I wish I could erase this bullshit out of my head.
Never I've seen a movie that was so bad as this one, seriously worst movie ever. Thinking about it makes me angry again.
Stay away from this one, I beg you.

I've seen some weird movies and I've seen some bad movies, I've even seen some bad weird movies, but I've never seen a movie quite like this. I really don't want to rip in too hard because I don't know why or how this movie came to be made. My guess would be a group of film students decided to make a film using their own camera and editing equipment, with no budget whatsoever, and they got a bunch of friends with no acting ability to play the parts. If that's the case then good on them for giving it ago. If in fact this was a serious offering by a movie studio then I question their life direction and would suggest they should limit their industry involvement to ushering people to their seats at a cinema. The acting was some of the worst i have ever seen. The story was woeful. The special effects were, ummmm, ahhhh, well, I don't think I can adequately describe just how bad they were, you have to see it to believe it.
All in all this movie was terrible. There really is no other word for it.

If you waste any more time on this movie than discerning it's not worth watching then that's your choice...you will never get the time back.
