Review of Schizoid

Schizoid (1980)
4/10
Someone Is Crazy And Klaus Kinski Is The Therapist
9 October 2021
Someone is murdering the great chefs..... I mean someone is murdering the patients in one of psychiatrist Klaus Kinski's therapy groups. These attacks are preceded by threats of shooting and executed by stabbings.

This should be a short in which cop Joe Regalbutto pulls out the handcuffs, arrests Kinski, and that's it. This being feature film, we need to spend some time getting to know the victims and dragging a few red herrings across the bloodhounds' path. Given the title, one expects foreboding music, a few dark-lit Dutch angle shots, and a last minute revelation. The movie delivers, but in such a mechanical fashion that I wasn't impressed.

With Christopher Lloyd as Gilbert.
