Psychopath Mania

The Banewood Asylum houses the mentally ill who are victims of unethical procedures and mad doctors. Patients have disappeared or been found dead under suspicious circumstances. Young women seem to be the victims most often of a medical staff who's methods hearken to the dark days of psychiatric treatments. The doctors use Psycho-Surgery to remove parts of their brains to quell the patients violent tendencies, at times turning them into little more than zombies, who are more violent than ever.

My take

A deeply unsettling dive into institutional horror and medical abuse. This is for viewers who crave psychological dread rooted in real historical trauma—the kind of film that lingers with a queasy, disturbed feeling long after it ends.
