Description: Having arrived to work in the psychiatric clinic of Dr. Stevens, known for its very sparing methods of work with patients, nurse Beat Charlotte learns that Stevens was killed by one of the patients in the basement, and the new bosses somehow opposed to the recruitment of new staff.
Review: One of the first B-movies I learned to appreciate, Don’t Look In The Basement (a.k.a. The Forgotten, Death Ward #13) follows a young nurse as she begins work at a lonely little asylum seemingly in the middle of nowhere. Her employment follows the murder of the good doctor who ran the place, and his colleague is none too friendly towards new staffing. The patients harass and frighten the nurse until the momentum really picks up!
