Storia
During a power blackout at an asylum for the criminally insane, four inmates escape and make their way to the house of Dr. Goldfein, the psychiatrist who Institutionalized them. They lay siege to his home, targeting him and his family for revenge. The escaped inmates include: John 'The Meat Cleaver Mauler' Kramer, who uses a meat cleaver as his weapon; Leonard 'The Grave Robber' Bernstein, who wears a tattered top hat; Matthew 'The Torso Killer' Malone, who carries around a chainsaw; and the mute and seemingly innocent Harold 'The Hunchback' Young. The doctor's mailman husband and his two children are initially unaware of the danger they're in as the escaped inmates pick them off one by one.
