Plot

The granddaughter of an infamous doctor experiments with hormone and shock therapies at her asylum for the insane.

Mrs. Van Houten has shown signs of losing touch with reality, and her husband discusses possible treatment with Dr. Caligari, who says Mrs. Van Houten has a disease of the libido. The staff want Dr. Caligari removed from their facility due to her controversial experiments with electroshock and hypothalamus injections. As Dr. Caligari continues experimenting with her patients, her daughter and son-in-law attempt to stop her.—Ed Sutton <esutton@mindspring.com>

Mrs Van Houten has been acting very strangely. At wits end, her husband checks her into the CIA (Caligari Insane Asylum) run by Dr Caligari. Dr Caligari's methods are highly controversial - extreme and dangerous, as Mrs Van Houten is about to find out.—grantss
