Be Careful Whose Door You Knock On.
When young Jane Lindstrom's (Glynis Johns) car breaks down, she makes her way to a somewhat frightening-looking mansion for help. Once there, however, her problems go from bad to worse: Dr. Caligari (Dan O'Herlihy), the owner of the house, begins to take Jane on a slow, torturous descent into her psyche that makes her increasingly uncomfortable. Moreover, she is held in the house against her will, and no one in Caligari's household seems willing to help her escape. With it's compelling, haunting soundtracks and unexpected plot twists, The Cabinet Of Caligari just might send you screaming to you psychotherapist, or, perhaps, running in the other direction!
