    This movie was amazing. Most people said that the story line was horrible but if you actually watch and focus on the movie you will actually see how good the story truly is. It has been quite a while since I have actually got scared by a scary movie, but this one definitely scared me. The jump scares were perfectly placed along with the new information learned. In all I think this movie deserves a better reputation. This is an absolutely amazing movie, and I believe more people should watch it.

    As a healthcare professional, this was too painful and cringy to watch. Poor research on their end, especially in regards to the actress on tracheostomy. Some of the actors are great though.

    A Horror Cocktail of Spectral Spookiness and Inconsistency! Cheers? Nails is like a horror cocktail mixed with a twist of spectral spookiness and a shot of inconsistency. Picture this: an "Angel of Death" ghost prowling around a Rehabilitation Centre, still busy with the killing business post-mortem. Sounds chilling, right? Well, it has its moments, some of which might leave you with goosebumps, while others make you scratch your head in bemusement. Let's start with the positives, shall we? The premise is intriguing. An "Angel of Death" ghost lurking in a Rehabilitation Centre adds a sinister twist to the care-giving setting. The varied characters are like a mixed bag of nuts - some crunchy, some bland, but enough to keep you munching through the plot. And their portrayers, especially Ross Noble as the orderly, shine brighter than a full moon on a foggy night. The cast maintains their ground, ensuring you're not left rolling your eyes when things bump in the dark. And that ending is a delightful cherry on top, leaving you simultaneously satisfied and spooked. But oh, the hiccups! The film stumbles right out of the gate, the beginning feeling like a wobbly sprinter unsure of which lane to sprint down. You might try to figure out why it's not all clicking together like a well-oiled scare machine. And speaking of missteps, there are the plot holes the director left open for ghosts to sneak in unnoticed. Take, for instance, the unfortunate demise of the orderly. By this time, we've established the ghostly rules - ghosts share their shyness of cameras with vampires. But apparently, someone missed the memo, abandoning us in a haunted maze of contradictions when the spook shows up on the webcam but not in the room. Let's talk about realism or the lack thereof. The hubby's reactions to his injured wife are as believable as a unicorn wearing a top hat. It's like trying to fit a square peg into a round hole - It might work if you whack it hard enough with a sledgehammer, but effectively leaves you wondering what went wrong. The director's prowess in increasing tension is commendable. Incorporating the security camera footage was genius and added an extra layer. So, Nails might be the ideal creepy companion for a pleasant night in, snuggled up on the couch with someone you won't mind clutching onto when things get a bit too eerie. But have your ghostly rulebook handy because this movie might relax a few established rules to keep you on your toes.

    It's quite a short film and I can see why as they really didn't have anywhere to go with it very very unrealistic and not really scary! A bit of a ripoff from the Freddie movie also did they really think they could pull it off just from nails scratching his way down the hallway lol! not too bad acting considering the pretty bad script theyve been given! I think I could come up with a better script in my sleep 😂🤣

    We have an acceptably faithful horror film here, although it sadly isn't all it could be due to the overall execution of its scares and an underdelivered final act. In saying that, the film still offers more than less. 5.5/10

    This is one of that movies wich you don't expect anything but it was a really good and entertaining one. I think Shauna Macdonald was very good.

    If it were a book it would be by Stephen King. But it's a good movie.

    If you like ghost stories, go ahead. Good actors. Plot just doesn't do it for me.
