Cut/Print is independent horror movie from 2012. It tells a story about a group of filmmakers who decide to shoot a horror movie in an abandoned psychiatric hospital. The director, Alan, is fascinated by the history of the hospital and believes that the real horror can only be captured on film if they produce the movie on its grounds.

The crew members and the actors arrive at the hospital, but soon realize that things are not as they seem. Strange things occur on set, noises and voices can be heard, and the actors become increasingly terrified. As they continue shooting the movie, it becomes clear that the hospital holds a dark secret and that it might be more than just a spooky set for their film.

The movie is shot as a found footage, and thus the audience is brought closer to the characters' experience. The handheld camera makes the setting feel even more claustrophobic and uncomfortable, and the sound design is particularly effective in creating an eerie atmosphere.

The main character, Alan, is an intense and passionate director who seeks to challenge his actors and create something unique. However, his desire for authenticity puts everyone in danger, and he becomes increasingly obsessed with capturing the perfect shot. He is played by Ele Bardha, whose performance walks the line between being charismatic and slightly unnerving. Alan is a complex character whose motivations are not always clear, and thus it is intriguing to watch how his decisions impact the rest of the film crew.

The rest of the cast is equally talented, especially Angela Chetcuti and Chelsey Fatula who play two of the actresses in the movie-within-a-movie. They are portrayed as typical horror movie clichés at first, but as the story progresses, they become much more fleshed out characters with their own fears and insecurities.

The movie also makes use of the psychiatric hospital's history and the concept of mental illness. The abandoned hospital serves as both a literal and metaphorical haunted location, and it is interesting to see how the characters grapple with their own perception of sanity. The movie raises questions about the nature of reality and the impact of psychological trauma on the human psyche.

Overall, Cut/Print is a well-crafted horror movie that will appeal to fans of found footage and psychological horror. Its use of real-life locations and history adds another layer of unease to the already creepy atmosphere, and the characters are compelling enough to keep the audience engaged.

Cut/Print is a 2012 thriller with a runtime of 1 hour and 32 minutes. It has received mostly poor reviews from critics and viewers, who have given it an IMDb score of 4.5.
