Review of Shock Corridor (1963) by Paul P — 06 Jan 2011
My intro to Sam Fuller and I really can't get a hold on what I just saw. This film lacks subtly but that's on purpose, it wants to hit you over the head by being blatantly obvious. The full impact of the film would've been better felt if I saw it in 63, the racism, the nymphos and the mental institution itself would've been mind bending.
It combines B grade camp with biting satire then has twists of social commentary all played out into a horror film, fantastic.
