Nurse at Jefferson Institute


Was it me or was Elizabeth Ashley's character (Mrs. Emerson) straight out of the Haunted Mansion? Wasn't she a bit over the top? That first scene she appeared in made this movie show its age. I can't imagine a nurse and a doctor having that conversation. Back in the 70's, her character would be considered very creepy. Watching that now though came off as unintentionally funny. ( I admit though, I would have found her frightening when this first came out because I would have been a nine year old kid.)

I just watched it, and I thought she was a character straight out of an Italian zombie/horror movie. WAY over the top.
