Alone in The Dark.

A doctor( Dwight shultz, who played the crazy chap in the A Team) gets a job at a asylum run by Donald pleasence, who is just as mad as his patients. and finds himself and his family in danger when there is a blackout and 4 of the psychos escape and lay siege to his home.

an oddball slasher style film from the 80's, mixing suspense, horror, and a bit of comedy too. with a fantastic cast including Jack palance and martin Landau playing OTT lunatics, especially Landau as a religious nut who enjoys burning down churches.

Definitely worth a watch, even if it does taper off a bit during the later scenes, and features one of the worst punk bands ever, The Sic Fu*ks. So bad that cutting off your ears and posting them to the moon would be preferable. but the all star cast keeps it well above average. 73 out of 100.
