Why it’s a Monday Morning Maybe

With almost no lasting buzz and soft box office, this one could be a tough watch. Keep your phone handy.

Based on critics, audiences, awards, box office and buzz. Details below.

Is it for you?

Who'll love it
If you count yourself among anyone who enjoys a good scare, this one's for you. A good one for a late-night scare.
The mood
Scary.
The pace
Tense from early on, at 1 hr 7 min. Short enough for a weeknight.
What might put you off
  • Made in 1946: an older pace and style.
  • Not one for anyone who hates jump scares.

Wishing to dispose of his wife, psychiatrist Dr. Elliott makes his patient Nina think that she suffers from a compulsion to kill. He drugs Nina, murders his wife and leaves evidence that points to Nina. The latter, pre-conditioned by Elliott, also thinks she is guilty.
