Movie review
From Time Out Film Guide
Bits of several Edgar Allan Poe stories make up this schlock offering, shot on the cheap in South Africa. It's set in a school for delinquent young ladies (cue shower scene), where new teacher Karen Witter is about to connect the shock disappearance of several pupils with the nefarious activities of mad doctor Vaughn. A sad checkout for John Carradine in his final role.Author: TJ
