The Ninth Configuration (1980), starring Stacy Keach, Jason Miller, Scott Wilson, George DiCenzo, and Ed Flanders. The release will be available for purchase on November 4th.
Synopsis: In an experimental government center for troubled Vietnam veterans, the inmates run the asylum. One works on an adaptation of Shakespeare... for dogs. Another fancies himself a caped superhero. Still others masquerade as frogmen, nurses, nuns, pirates, doctors. Yet the psychiatrist in charge eyes all with a stoic reserve. Maybe too stoic: there's a mystery here. And its final resolution is like a thunderclap.
William Peter Blatty, the Academy Award winning writer of
The Exorcist, provides a Golden Globe winning screenplay (from his novel
