Robin Askwith stars as Jason Jones, a young songwriter who travels to a secluded hospital for a rest. On the train he meets a beautiful young woman named Judy Peters (Vanessa Shaw) who is also going to the same said hospital to visit her aunt.
From the moment they arrive both realize something is very wrong. They are introduced to Dr. Christian Storm (Michael Gough). He then introduces them to many other young people living at the hospital. They are all victims of the mad doctors labotomy operations.
Gough plays it to the hilt and seems to be having a heyday as the madman. Judy and Jason fight like hell to escape the place and we also discover that Storm is NOT what he appears to be.
There is a little comedy in here as well and it mixes in well. It is a fine line to follow, and director Antony Balch handles it very well.
The rest of the cast in this fun thriller includes Ellen Pollock, Dennis Price, Skip Martin, Kurt Christian and Barbara Wendy.
I had a great time with this movie and I hope if you see it you will to. Good fun.
