Has anyone seen "Dementia 13"? It's an excellent horror classic where a man dies of a heart attack, and this forbids his wife from getting any of his inheritance. So she forges a letter in his behalf, and then goes to her husbands ancestral home to make sure she gets a cut of the money. Bringing the note along for anyone who asks about her husbands whereabouts.
The note she writes says he's been called to New York City on important business. Once she gets to her husband birth place, Castle Haloran....she finds out his sister drowned in the pond nearby seven years earlier, and every year the family commits a morbid ritual to remember her. Her arrival just so happens to coincide with said ritual, and while there...she and the family begin to experience "dementia", aka a mental deterioration.
I thought this movie was scary as hell. Even for a guy like me who's a Chucky fan. It still amazes me that back in those days, there was no fancy visuals, no cgi, and yet they still managed to freak you out by just being simple yet effective with the story and the scares.
