Vault of Horror dons a STRAIT-JACKET (1964) for this classic Castle x Crawford shocker! The legendary Joan Crawford stars as Lucy, returning home to her daughter Carol (Diane Baker) after 20 years in the asylum—and all because of one night, one axe, and two dead bodies. But when the murders begin anew, Carol can't help but wonder if mother might be back to her old ways. Written by Robert Bloch (PSYCHO) and directed by the king of horror gimmicks, William Castle (HOUSE ON HAUNTED HILL), STRAIT-JACKET is a killer good time from its shocking opening sequence to its melodramatic mystery—and all astonishingly anchored in reality by Joan Crawford's chillingly committed performance.
