The Power
Directed by Corinna Faith
London, 1974. As Britain prepares for electrical blackouts to sweep across the country, trainee nurse Val arrives for her first day at the crumbling East London Royal Infirmary. With most of the patients and staff evacuated to another hospital, Val is forced to work the night shift in the empty building. Within these walls lies a deadly secret, forcing Val to face her own traumatic past in order to confront the malevolent force that’s intent on destroying everything around her. A SHUDDER EXCLUSIVE.

this had 2 skulls but after deleting my critical review it gets one less ... movie is forgettable, not bad enough to be disliked not good enough to remember
gave up 1/2 way. It feels like someone who didn't enjoy or understand horror movies made a list of common tropes and stuck them into a film. 100% forgettable 4.2 out of 10
Was in the mood for something under 1:45, not too intense or serious, not too "slow burn" so I picked this. Really not bad at all. Kudos to the sound dept/soundtrack folks: very effective. Kinda typical story, serviceable acting, ending: whatever (name me a horror movie with a great ending?), but overall, worked well for me. Did I mention sound and soundtrack?
Enjoyable movie. Not too grande nor too bad. Interesting and basic plot.
This was a real treat. Genuine scares and emotive story whilst exploring misogyny and gaslighting. A pleasant surpise - would reccomend
