Dr. Richard Thorndyke (Brooks) is hired as the new head of the Psycho-Neurotic Institute for the Very, Very Nervous, where he begins to suspect foul play in another doctor’s recent demise. Can he overcome his paralyzing “high anxiety” disorder and bring sanity to the sanatorium before a killer strikes again? Brooks regulars Madeline Kahn, Cloris Leachman, and Harvey Korman lend stellar support to this parody of Hitchcock’s hits.
Part of the “VertiGoals” film series devoted to Hitchcock’s Vertigo and a selection of films it inspired.
