From legendary filmmaker Samuel Fuller comes Shock Corridor, a gripping psychological thriller that delves into the dark corridors of the human mind. Determined to win a Pulitzer Prize, journalist Johnny Barrett (Peter Breck) fakes insanity to be committed to a mental institution where he plans to uncover the truth behind a mysterious murder. However, as he navigates the asylum’s eerie halls and interacts with its disturbed patients, Johnny’s own sanity begins to unravel. A masterpiece of suspense and social commentary, Fuller's Shock Corridor remains a bold and provocative film, blending noir-style storytelling with a haunting exploration of mental illness.
