I do! It's really brilliant--comical and terrifying at the same time. I've been watching since it started last year. Honestly, it's a must see. If you have cable, you can watch it on demand--it's the FX channel.

In this particular scene, Jessica Lange is "reacting" to ECT. It's complicated, but she plays a nun who is unjustly institutionalized, and because she can't remember where/who she is, she recalls her life as a singer prior to the time she's in. (I'm not doing it any justice, but it's so good!)

Bryn looks rather scarey. Reminds me a bit of One Flew Over the Coo Coo's Nest. Old Movie. Phillipa

Hi p-

It is scary (and yet so comical too). You gotta laugh at the guy in the straight jacket skipping by! But yes, very much like One Flew Over the Cuckoos Nest.

At one time would have loved it. What about Bob is a great movie more comical that one I really liked. Bill Murray & Richard Dreyfus P

Asylum is great! I don't know how dark you are (I'm pretty twisted, lol), but it weaves a lot of frightening, philosophical and cultural topics together.

Enjoy!
