As ghost stories go, this one isn't too terrible. A handful of kids stuck in a soon-to-be-closed hospital are menaced by a malevolent spirit, and the new night nurse (Calista Flockhart) tries to get to the bottom of things. Though the story is serviceable enough, Flockhart undoes a lot of the picture's potential by playing her character as distant and emotionally dead (hard to tell if she did it on purpose or just lacked the range to do anything else). Mildly amusing
Media criticism. Pop culture snark. And movie reviews. Lots and lots of movie reviews.
