Stars: Dan Grimaldi, Charles Bonet, Bill Ricci, Ruth Dardick | Written by Joseph Ellison, Ellen Hammill, Joe Masefield | Directed by Joseph Ellison
One of the many films that were tangled up in the video nasty debacle of the early 80s, Don’t Go In The House tells the story of Donny, a somewhat disturbed man who lives under the thumb of his overbearing and sadistic (in the sense that she likes to burn his arms on the stove) mother. That is until his mother passes away and Donny’s already disturbed psyche finally cracks. Living only with the voices in his head, Donny seeks out female companionship, only his idea of bringing a girl home to meet mother entails tying them up in his steel-walled burning chamber!
Don’t Go In the House is a film clearly inspired by Psycho, yet it shares very familiar traits with William Lustig’s Maniac and De...

Starring: Dan Grimaldi (Donny Kohler), Robert Osth (Tuttle), Bill Ricci (Vito), Charles Bonet (Ben), David Brody (Tony), Ralph Bowman (Father Gerritty), Nikki Collins (Farrah), Johanna Brushay (Kathy), Gloria Szymkovicz (Sylvia), Louise Grimaldi (Barbara), Tom Brumberger (Alfred)

Don’T Go In The House

One of the many films that was tangled up in the video nasty debacle of the early 80s, ArrowDrome’s release of Don’t Go In The House sees the sleaze-fest released in its uncut form for the first time since VHS certification was made mandatory here in the UK.

That is until his mother shuffles off the mortal coil and Danny’s already disturbed psyche finally cracks.
