Review of The Fifth Floor (1978) by Chris K — 12 May 2014

The Fifth Floor while at times harrowing to watch was a great.

Thriller which apparently was based on true events, I'm surprised.

That it doesn't have more of a cult following.

After having a seizure at work one night, Kelly, a young college.

Student is taken to hospital where it is discovered she was.

Poisoned. Due to a past suicide attempt it is believed that she.

May have poisoned herself, so she is evaluated by a psychiatrist.

Who after some misunderstandings has her incarcerated on the.

Fifth Floor, A secure ward for the insane where Kelly finds.

Herself trying to prove her sanity.

The acting was all very good and the screenplay was well paced,.

Some notable co-stars include Robert Englund (Freddy Kreuger.

In A Nightmare On Elm St.) and in a slightly ironic role Earl Boen.

(Doctor Silberman in Terminator) as a fellow inmate.

I enjoyed watching the film and recommend it to anyone who.

Enjoys a good horror/thriller.
