Based on critics, audiences, awards, box office and buzz. Details below.Is it for you?
- Who'll love it
- Tailor-made for people who like to watch through their fingers. A good one for a late-night scare.
- The mood
- Scary.
- The pace
- Tense from early on, at 1 hr 25 min. An easy one to fit in on a school night.
- What might put you off
- It's in German, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
- Made in 1968: an older pace and style.
- Not one for anyone who hates jump scares.
In an ancient castle, a mad scientist is trying to revive his dead daughter by an operation, but there are certain body parts he needs that he can't get. His problem is solved when a group of drunken party-goers stumble into his castle.
