    Storyline

    Did you know

    Edit
    • Trivia
      The movie is based on short story written in 1844 by Edgar Allan Poe, "The System of Doctor Tarr and Professor Fether".
    • Goofs
      At the beginning of the film, it is stated that the year is 1899. However, at the dinner party, Newgate makes a joke about the character Mickey Finn's name and its association to "knockout drops." The real Mickey Finn, a Chicago bartender known for putting knockout drops in his patrons' drinks, was not caught in this activity until 1903 and the phrase did not enter common usage in America for at least another decade.
    • Quotes

      Edward Newgate: You're mad!

      Silas Lamb: We're all mad Dr. Newgate. Some are simply not mad enough to admit it.

    Great cast and entertaining
    Great acting from an impressive cast.

    Yes the story is based on a Poe story, but instead of finding it eerie I found myself laughing out loud at some parts,(maybe that's just me).

    If you haven't seen the trailer then all the better, a few twists and turns become apparent about 30mins into the film. But there is more to it so don't feel disappointed.

    In general an entertaining film about lunatics and an asylum, set in a Gothic era, the cast really do bring a lot to this film.

    Ben Kingsley imparticular brings so much to his character.

    I give it a good 7.5 out of 10
