Aug 25-31 Natasha Lyonne Week: There’s a new season of her weirdo mystery of the week coming out (I can’t remember the name rn, you can look it up), and she’s been steadily delivering chuckles for decades now.
William Butler was killed in numerous horror movies. In Friday the 13th Part VII: The New Blood, as Michael, the remake of Night of the Living Dead, and as Ryan in Leatherface: The Texas Chainsaw Massacre III, he was murdered by some of the main characters of modern horror. He has made several Full-Length Movies since then and wrote Return of the Living Dead: Necropolis and Return of the Living Dead: Rave to the Grave, but he probably hated those just as much as I did, so I won’t say anything bad here.
The patients at Cunningham Hall Mental Facility are being kept as prisoners. At least that’s what some of those patients say, but aren’t they crazy? Intern Clark Stevens (Joshua Leonard) is working for Dr. Franks (Lance Henriksen), who believes that there’s a connection between insanity and the paranormal. For some reason, that gives the guards and nurses the ability to just abuse the patients, like Alice (Natasha Lyonne).
There’s also a killer on the grounds, a secret section called Madhouse, which is where the hazardous people live and perhaps the idea that the doctors are all embezzling funds and giving their patients placebos instead of the real prescriptions that they need.
You’ll see the ending coming. It’s still a feel-good picture.
You can watch this on Tubi.
