What should have been just another night on the job turns into a desperate fight for survival for three friends when the inmates of a high security asylum break free from their cells.
Rock musicians George, Max and Ricky work in the kitchen at the local asylum to make ends meet - the pay is good and they're at minimal risk, having no direct contact with the inmates. One night, just before dinner time, a storm shuts down the security system and the doors to all the cells open, letting the lunatics loose. Outnumbered and almost defenseless in the dark, the trio must find a way to survive until help arrives. A nerve-shattering thriller, Asylum Blackout is a terrifying plunge into darkness where the things that go bump in the night become a very real threat.

It’s okay to watch once. Well made, atmospheric, the corridors of a mental hospital have their charm and the psychopaths in the end are really good. I’m not jumping in joy, but I’m sure there are people who will be very satisfied with this film.

The idea of a power outage in the setting of a lunatic asylum is a solid foundation for a horror thriller, especially when the accomplished screenwriter S. Craig Zahler is involved in it. Unfortunately, he probably did not have the last word on the screenplay, or he was just using this movie as an exercise for his movie making style, because it is quite half-baked and the end of the movie is quite chaotic, lacking interesting characters and dialogues, which is normally Zahler's strength. It could have turned out much better.
