Don't Look in the Basement (1973)


A horror by S. F. Brownrigg.
A doctor runs a sanitarium where he lets the patients get carried away with their personal insanities. A patient kills him on the day before his new assistant arrives. The new assistant is left with the only remaining nurse in a house full of crazy people.
The plot and characters were REALLY GOOD. The execution was somewhat lacking, being from the early '70s and all. Towards the beginning, one of the nurses is killed, but nobody seems to notice or care that she isn't there. There were some very interesting plot twists at the end and an unexpected hero arose from the mess that this created. I'm rating this good. It would have gotten a better rating if it had been made a little better.
