With this and “Sucker Punch,” we’re just one feature short of a 2011 nubile-girls-in-scary-asylums trend. “The Ward” is the first film from John Carpenter since 2001′s “Ghosts of Mars,” and it stars “All the Boys Love Mandy Lane”‘s Amber Heard as a girl whose stay in a mental institution in the mid-’60s complicated by a grey ghost who keeps popping up out of nowhere and trying to strangle her or something. The film, which premiered at Toronto, doesn’t yet have a US distributor, but is opening in the UK in two weeks.
