"The Orphanage" and "The Institute" are the same film. It is titled "Milwood" (sic) failed to improve it for some reason, but did increase sales and rentals.
Nathan (Christian Goodwin) arrives at the Milwood Institute after his parents die and he didn't get his puppy. He is cared for by child counselor Judy (Michelle Romano) the closets thing to eye-candy and the not so caring dean (Jimmy Scanlon). He is bullied by Tommy (Adam J. Freeman) until they both wind up in the bad boy ward, rumored to be haunted.
Nothing to see here, mini plot spoiler, it is not haunted. In fact this should not be sold as a horror film, but is more akin to a "Lifetime" drama (which I find to be a horror for a different reason).
Guide: 1 F-bomb. No sex or nudity.

It was just a bad dream
Ridiculously Bad
Where do I begin? So bad...let me count the ways...
I wasted an hour and a half on this horrible movie. No one can act, nothing makes sense, you don't know what the point is, none of it is realistic.
Oy vey! Run away!
might be the worst movie ever
This movie is so bad. They changed the name to the orphanage and it's just horrible. I felt like I was watching a junior college project filmed in a dorm. Nothing good about this movie at all. I feel like the name was changed so that people might accidentally rent it thinking it's the horror classic of the same name. I wish I could have that 97 minutes of my life back. The camera work was weird, The acting was weird, The dialogue was weird. This review might be weird but the movie was such a train wreck it made me feel weird. What were the film makers thinking? Were they high or are they retarded? I fee that they might be all three. I feel bad for the kid who starred in this rubbish.
