The premise
Mrs. Van Houten has shown signs of losing touch with reality, and her husband discusses possible treatment with Dr. Caligari, who says Mrs. Van Houten has a disease of the libido.
Horror Vault's take
A woman's grip on reality begins to slip, landing her in the care of the eccentric and deeply unorthodox Dr. Caligari — a descendant of the infamous original. What unfolds is a fever-dream collision of avant-garde visuals, twisted psychology, and grotesque medical experimentation that defies easy categorization. Part horror, part dark satire, this low-budget cult oddity gleefully tramples the line between patient and predator, sanity and spectacle.
