Demons of the Mind

Fearing incest, Baron Zorn keeps his grown children locked away from each other in his mansion. In the meantime, people go missing in the village. Peter Sykes has created an atmosphere of malaise around backward superstitions that turn against those who hold them. Pernicious violence erupts in scenes of pure horror. A rare Hammer film about mad love and family relationships that defy notions of right and wrong.
