The Silent Scream (1980)

Director: Denny Harris
Starring: Barbara Steele, Rebecca Balding

Synopsis:
A college student moves into a seaside mansion owned by a strange lady and her teenage son. The house boards other students. After one of the students is murdered, the family's secrets start coming out.

My Take:
I enjoyed watching Barbara Steele pay a compete whack job. She's just awesome and it makes the movie. The story is decent, if not a little predictable, but the movie drags in parts.

Rating: In the middle
