Product DescriptionWhen the lights go out, the terror begins! At a secluded mental institution, Dr. Bain (Halloween's Donald Pleasence) has developed a new form of therapy while electricity fuels the asylum's hi-tech security system, keeping nearby neighborhoods safe from menaces like Frank Hawkes (Academy Award winner Jack Palance, City Slickers) and the "Preacher" (Academy Award winner Martin Landau, Ed Wood). Meanwhile a new doctor, Dan Potter (Dwight Schultz, The A-Team), arrives in town with his family, but the inmates don't take kindly to his presence and believe he has killed off their former therapist. Suddenly a power outage leaves the town in chaos... and now the maniacs are free to roam the streets and hunt down the man they believe has invaded their lives. With the area quickly descending into riots, the innocent few must fight for their lives when they're left terrified, cornered, and Alone in the Dark! One of the most memorable and terrifying cult horror films of the 1980s, this white-knuckle shocker from director Jack Sholder (The Hidden) delivers one seat-jumping scare after another along with a thick vein of sly, pitch-black humor. Turn off the lights and watch... if you dare!
