TMT Presents: Five Nights Of Halloween - Night Three

Looks like you made it to the third night in our five part series recommending bad horror movies that are "So Bad They're Good". Our third film is a early 70's cliche riddled horror flick that is best viewed from upstairs.

Don't Look In The Basement

Synopsis:

The creatively-thinking director of an insane asylum allows several inmates to act out their psychotic delusions. When a new staffer arrives, the murder of the director leads to a full-scale takeover of the institution by its inmates.

You'll laugh at the funny parts and laugh at the parts that are supposed to scare you as the asylum residents run wild and give a new meaning to, the inmates running the asylum. For some reason the residents can pretty much run around this institution at will. There are no guards, knives lying around, and the doors are always unlocked. For some reason they don't want anybody looking in the basement. The characters themselves are a laugh a minute. The new nurse on the block named Charlotte. Danny, who resembles a malformed version of the Mad Magazine cover. Allyson the nympho, who would be my favorite if it wasn't for Sam. You have to love Sam, a massive man with body like a hippo and the mind of an adolescent. There is a scene where he is hiding under a bed that is priceless. Throw in a crazy war veteran and a cryptic old lady and you've struck copper. Although somebody like me will continue to get a chuckle out of this film, the movie itself is definitely a downer. Go for it. Tell me what you think.
