Story: A young psychiatric nurse goes to work at a remote asylum following a murder. There, she experiences varying degrees of torment from the patients. Don?t Look in the Basement was targeted as part of the 1984 Video Nasties panic in the United Kingdom. These films were heavily censored, outright banned, and in some cases, even resulted in filmmaker prosecution. Don?t Look in the Basement, also known as The Forgotten and Death Ward #13, fell under Section 2 of the list of films that were said to violate the Obscene Publications Act of 1959 and banned in 1984, over a decade after its initial release. Section 2 means that the film was banned in the country, and any VHS copies of the film were to be confiscated by the UK government. In total, there were 33 films which fell under Section 2, the most notable being Sam Raimi?s The Evil Dead.
