Asylum: A Dark Journey Into The Forgotten, Where Time Stands Still

Alex

In this short video called Asylum, Drew Geraci and Andrew Breese of The Voder captured the beautiful creepiness of an abandoned mental institution (don't ask where):

Take a dark journey into the forgotten, where time stands still. The paint has peeled off the walls and the only occupants are the souls of those left behind. This is the Asylum.

Opened in the early 1920s, the Asylum closed down and was abandoned decades ago. Rooms remain untouched – left as they were when the last of the employees departed. These buildings stand as a testament to the horrors and miss treatment that patients had to endure during the time of its operation.

Our 7 month journey into the Asylum led us on many adventures; from dodging security vehicles, ghostly figures and even a meth head. This is no place for the faint of heart. Asbestos blanketed every room we entered like new winter snow, so shooting was sometimes difficult.

Satisfyingly gorgeous! I love the broken mirror gag, and the sweeping camera tracking, and the flickering flashlight. Didn't quite get the ending, did it have a baby?

The environment was very beautifully done. The little girl on the other hand didn't look very well done. Her movements were too.... not sure how to word it... just not right. Kind of over-exaggerated or something.
