Dr. Caligari (1989) Stephen Sayadian

Mrs. Van Houten has shown signs of losing touch with reality, and her husband discusses possible treatment with Dr. Caligari, who says Mrs. Van Houten has a disease of the libido. The staff want Dr. Caligari removed from their facility due to her controversial experiments with electroshock and hypothalamus injections. As Dr. Caligari continues experimenting with her patients, her daughter and son-in-law attempt to stop her.

This is simply one of the strangest films ever made. Directed by Stephen Sayadian, the man that gave you the Sci-Fi Porn Thriller, “Cafe Flesh”, “Dr. Caligari” is one of the 80’s cult films that is *so* strange, *so* bizarre, that it defies ordinary description. More Mondo than “Forbidden Zone”, more inexplicable than “Eraserhead”, more indescribable than “Invocation of my Demon Brother”, it’s a psychotic psychodrama romp semi-sequel to “The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari”; it seems Dr. Caligari’s grand-daughter has opened her own asylum for the sexually maladjusted, and is experimenting on her patients. Words cannot do this film justice.
