Set in the 1950s this film starts as a special agent starts his investigations on what seems to be the miraculous escape of a mental patient from a heavily fortified mental institution for the criminally insane. As he finds a note hidden in the patients cell things seem to turn a shade more sinister.

This being one of those films that only work out if you know little about them I'll have to leave it at that. It's dark, it's downright creepy at times, it has all the things a solid thriller needs, and more.

I'd call it a brilliant bit of film if it weren't for some hit and miss scenes - especially scenes where some of the actors came over as too much of a character.

8 out of 10 persons missing
