Cine-Real presents: High Anxiety

94 mins
1978
BBFC 15

A psychiatrist with intense acrophobia (fear of heights) goes to work for a mental institution run by doctors who appear to be crazier than their patients, and have secrets that they are willing to commit murder to keep.

'A riotus spoof of Alfred Hitchcock thrillers that doubles as a loving tribute to the master of suspense. Brooks reached his comedy peak with High Anxiety!' - Chuck O'Leary

Ciné-Real is one of the only film clubs in the UK to exclusively play films from original 16mm prints. They are a non-profit organisation which aims to unite film makers and enthusiasts in their appreciation of classic film.
