Asylum

(1972)Directed by Roy Ward Baker88 min · PGHorror
“You have nothing to lose but your mind.”

A young psychiatrist applies for a post at a remote asylum and wants the job badly enough to take the test he's handed. He must interview four patients, including Lucy (Britt Ekland) and Byron (Herbert Lom), and work out which one is really the doctor he would be replacing. Roy Ward Baker builds the film from four of Robert Bloch's stories, and the interviewer and Dr. Lionel Rutherford (Patrick Magee) stay locked in a quiet contest of who is judging whom.
