“Spithood” (** out of four) was a meager horror melodrama set in a mental institution in which a dangerous patient escapes and goes on a murderous rampage as various members of the hospital (Thibul Nettle, Claudia Bonifazio, and others) try to re-capture him and survive the night. Awful title is nowhere near as bad as you may think and is directed with some style but won’t exactly qualify for preservation in the Library Of Congress either. At least you can’t accuse it of being overlong at 58 minutes.
