Not Alone
At Woodward Penitentiary for Women, an unexpected and highly disturbed inmate is now held in the psych ward once overseen by criminal psychologist Miranda Grey. The inmate: Dr. Grey herself.
Halle Berry portrays Grey, accused of a savage murder and clinging to her sanity as she copes with a series of ghostly encounters in Gothika, from Dark Castle Entertainment. A fellow doctor (Robert Downey Jr.), a volatile inmate (Penelope Cruz) and others figure in her harrowing ordeal. Mathieu Kassovitz directs this jolting ghost story in which strange voices cry out, messages scrawled in blood appear, specters arise - and the only thing more gripping than Grey's stark awakening into madness is her feverish attempt to escape it.

Not a horror film, but a great thriller - 3.75 out of 5 (3/26/2004)
I first saw GOTHIKA in the theater, and I walked out afterwards shaking my head in disgust. I went in expecting a horror film along the lines of THIRTEEN GHOSTS, and HOUSE ON HAUNTED HILL, both films produced by the guys at Dark Castle that fit the description of more traditional horror.
But then I thought about it, and I realized my expectations were too high. I also realized that even though GOTHIKA may not be a great horror film, it is still a better than average Gothic thriller that has

What a GREAT SURPRISE! - 4 out of 5 (4/30/2004)
I was very concerned with this movie. After all it does have Downey, Jr in it. Maybe this is why I liked Gothika so much. I expected an average to below average film and got so much more. The acting was top notch and although the plot had holes in it I found it to be quite scary. The concept in itself is a very interesting one and the ending was not exactly what I expected before renting this movie. Let's just say that the movie comes to be a horrific tale in the end.
The Video was top
