    A bit of a disappointment. I was trying to find the German silent film, "Der Kabinet des Doktor Caligari" and thought this one might be a remake of that classic. Not so. The actual title is "The Cabinet of Caligari" and the film has nothing to do with the 1919 German original. Still the story is not without interest (script by Robert Bloch) and once you push through the disappointment, it's not at all bad The only remaining mystery is why Glynis Johns stars, but Videohound doesn't list this movie in her credits. An enjoyable movie, though not quite what I had hoped for. With love under will, Bob, Adastra, The Wizzard of Jacksonville
