Starts off like one would expect from a slasher. But then it very slowly builds towards the bloody climax. Decent for Fulci and genre fans.

| synopsis | A young family moves from their cramped New York City apartment to a spacious new home in New England. But his is no ordinary house in the country: the previous owner was the deranged Dr. Freudstein, whose monstrous human experiments have left a legacy of bloody mayhem. Now, someone - or something - is alive in the basement, and home sweet home is about to become a horrific hell on earth. |
