This horror cult favorite by camp master William Girdler should be avoided by anyone incapable of appreciating a film ironically. Yes, rubber snakes attack a blind woman. Yes, that is not scary. But it is funny. Actually, it's hi-freakin-larious.

Lucina, a virginal -- or is she? -- concert pianist is forcibly committed to a "hospital" run by a cross dressing Satan worshipper whose patients range from a naive blind woman to despondent wheelchair-bound druids. Lucina's mutton-chopped, plaid-pantsed boyfriend, Chris, tries to save her as a bam-chicka-bamp-bamp porn soundtrack plays in the background. I won't ruin the ending. Let's just say that the Dark Prince makes an appearance and he's looking for some hot hot Satan-on-virgin action. Awww yeaaah!

Summary: If you heart irony and laughing at others, you will like this movie. If you think that a low-budget movie with poster art resembling a Spinal Tap album cover could possibly be scary, you will be angry. The Exorcist is scary. Asylum of Satan is not.

Out of all the horror movies I have Seen and I've seen many Horror movies this has to be the worst I have ever seen.

The special effects in it are so bad that it is sickning. At one part in the movie this doctor puts a blind person in a swiming pool and these rubber snakes come over with plastic teeth and kill her, you can see the strings pulling the snakes over to the girl.

At another point in the movie this one girl who is on a wheelchair gets pushed in a room and gets locked in their and then you see all of these little plastic spiders and other things that are attached to a string get pulled over her and then she dies.

So what I am basically saying is that this movie has horrible special effects and really bad acting, so whatever you do, don't bother watching this movie.
