Gothika

Gothika (2003) is Mathieu Kassovitz's supernatural thriller you can watch online on iFILM. Halle Berry plays a prison psychiatrist who wakes up on the wrong side of the bars, locked inside the asylum where she used to work.

Driving home one rainy night, Dr. Miranda Grey swerves for a girl standing in the road and blacks out. She comes round to learn three days are gone, her husband has been butchered, and every piece of evidence says she did it. Her memory is blank. Her colleague Pete Graham, played by Robert Downey Jr., runs her case and buys none of her story. Meanwhile something walks the wards that no chart can explain: words fogged onto glass, burns that surface on her skin, a voice that isn't hers. Penélope Cruz plays a patient nobody has believed in years.

Kassovitz, the director of La Haine, shot his first Hollywood film cold and steel-grey, as cramped as the hospital itself. Sebastian Gutierrez wrote the script and Joel Silver produced. The premise sounds simple and plays anything but: what if the ghost is telling the truth and the doctors are not. Stream Gothika (2003) online on iFILM.
