Slow slasher set in Savannah pays off with the last act
A teacher of deaf kids is haunted by her upbringing with her crazy twin sister. When its discovered that shes escaped the institution, people around her start dying. This builds up to the sisters birthday.
While technically an Italian production, Madhouse (1981) was shot in America with American actors and is also known as There Was a Little Girl. While the first hour is mostly unhurried drama, this is the foundation for the crazy last act. The producer/director/writer Ovidio G. Assonitis gives hints of whats really going on, but doesnt spell it out. He respected the viewer to put the pieces together.
The film should also be esteemed for featuring something that didnt be...
