Description

A homicidal maniac is accidentally released from a hospital because of a computer error and heads to the site (a sorority) of his past murders to continue his penchant for mayhem. Dr. Joan Gilmore takes off after him while the hospital administrators cover up the mistake and send some staff thugs out to get both the doctor and the escaped lunatic.

Silent Madness is a late entry in the early 80’s slasher boom. The story here revolves around a dangerous mental patient that is accidentally released and comes home to kill sorority girls. Hey, it’s a new idea but it’s just crazy enough to work… ? Starring Belinda Montgomery, who also filmed in Women in Chains prison movie

In this undistinguished, derivative slasher movie, a homicidal maniac is accidentally released from a hospital because of a computer error and heads to the site (a sorority) of his past murders to continue his penchant for mayhem.

The good but obviously witless Dr. Joan Gilmore takes off after him while the villainous hospital administrators cover up the mistake and send some staff thugs out to get both the doctor and the escaped lunatic. Gilmore poses as a sorority woman and soon finds herself menaced on all sides as the gruesome, graphic murders begin to mount.

Director: Simon Nuchtern
