Unknown to them, there is a sinister secret behind closed doors. IMDb &amp;nbsp;  Director:&amp;nbsp;Antony Balch Writers:&amp;nbsp;Antony Balch,&amp;nbsp;Alan Watson Selected Cast:  Michael Gough&amp;nbsp;\u2013 Dr. Christian Storm Robin Askwith&amp;nbsp;\u2013 Jason Jones Vanessa Shaw&amp;nbsp;\u2013 Judy Peters Ellen Pollock&amp;nbsp;\u2013 Aunt Harris Dennis Price&amp;nbsp;\u2013 Mr. Pollack Skip Martin&amp;nbsp;\u2013 Frederick Kurt Christian&amp;nbsp;\u2013 Abraham Warren Barbara Wendy&amp;nbsp;\u2013 Millie Kenneth Benda&amp;nbsp;\u2013 Carter    Horror Hospital&amp;nbsp;is Doc\u2019s pick and it proves to be so much better than he remembers. Of course, it\u2019s not a good movie, but it is kind of great. There\u2019s a crazy aunt, Frederick\u2019s antics, biker henchmen, and victims right and left. What he can\u2019t figure out, is why this film seems to be forgotten? Despite his low expectations, Bill enjoyed every minute of&amp;nbsp;Horror Hospital,&amp;nbsp;calling it a crazy, nutty, hoot. Bill has an affection for good-looking, low-budget, British movies and has enjoyed many of producer Richard Gordon\u2019s other movies.&amp;nbsp;Horror Hospital&amp;nbsp;scores on both counts and though it\u2019s not a good movie, it is an enjoyable movie. Chad\u2019s first impression is, \u201cWhat the hell is going on around here?\u201d The film\u2019s craziness turns out to be a good crazy as he enjoys&amp;nbsp;Horror Hospital\u2019s&amp;nbsp;generous helpings of humor and weirdness, amplified by the performances of Michael Gough and Skip Martin. Jeff also had a blast watching it, loving Michael Gough\u2019s performance as well and, oh, those beheadings. If you haven\u2019t experienced the cheesy fun of&amp;nbsp;Horror Hospital, the 70s Grue-Crew wonders what you\u2019re waiting for?
