Argumento
In 'Hysteria', directed by Rene Daalder, renowned actor Patrick McGoohan stars as a psychiatrist in charge of an insane asylum. The inmates are subjected to unconventional experiments using collective consciousness and surgically implanted chips, aiming to create ideal citizens. Under McGoohan's guidance, the patients become connected into a group mind, sharing each other's psychoses, dreams, and sexuality with disturbing and titillating consequences. This leads to an operatic display of mayhem within the asylum.

Resumen
Hysteria is a thought-provoking blend of sci-fi horror and drama that explores themes of individuality versus collective consciousness, power dynamics, control, and freedom. While initially appearing as a grindhouse film, it delves deeper into philosophical questions through its unsettling narrative. Directed by Rene Daalder and starring Patrick McGoohan in a role that inversely reflects his iconic character from 'The Prisoner', the film offers mind-expanding reflections on societal expectations and personal autonomy.
