DON'T LOOK IN THE BASEMENT
(AKA: THE FORGOTTEN)(1973)
In the sets: 100 Greatest Cult Classic;
Mad Scientist Theater
A batch of mentally challenged people in an
asylum! There's a death pretty early on, then
after that it's pretty much a pshychological
thriller! It always has the feel that there's
another death just around the corner! A few
decent actors here, all unknown! And you can
see the main plot twist comming a mile away!
Some nudity! C+
From a reviewer at IMDb.com:
I was surprised how good this film was.
The IMDB rating is so low. I'm not sure
why it rates so poorly.
The biggest problem with the flick is that
it had a miniscule budget. The overall
look is fairly shabby - a very thin production.
BUT it has everything else you want in a
cheapo horror flick...the script is original,
the acting is actually decent, bordering
on pretty good for a few characters. The
camera work is creative. The heroine is
a babe.
A bit of gore and a bit of suspense. Seasoned
horror junkies may be able to guess the main
gimmick after the first couple of scenes, but
it is still worth watching. The film does
provide a couple of minor twists that you
won't guess though.
If you are looking for bland and well produced
then perhaps you should stick with Phantom
Menace. If you want to watch a nifty little
throwaway horror flick, try Dont Look In The
Basement. - peterc-8
