“The uncanny master of make-up in a new amazing shocker!”

HorrorCrime

A brilliant but deranged neurosurgeon becomes obsessively fixated on a judge's daughter. With the help of an escaped criminal whose face he has surgically deformed, the mad man lures her, her father, and her fiancé to his isolated, castle-like home.

VIBE

A chilling descent into madness, this gothic horror drips with atmosphere. Expect a slow-burn dread, punctuated by unsettling imagery and a pervasive sense of doom, all wrapped in a classic, expressionistic style.
