This DVD of the 1955 Horror, Mystery, Film-Noir movie DAUGHTER OF HORROR aka DEMENTIA has been digitally re-mastered to maintain the original retro/classic scratched look and feel of the original movie that was so common at the time of its creation.

Writer: John Parker, Bruno VeSota
Stars: Adrienne Barrett, Bruno VeSota, Ben Roseman

The narrator invites us to explore the horrors of an insane mind, a young woman wakes from a nightmare in a cheap hotel room. We follow her through the skid-row night and encounters with an abusive husband; a wino; a pimp and the rich man he panders for; a flashback to her traumatic childhood; violence; pursuit through dark streets; dementia. Filmed in film-noir style throughout; only the narrator speaks.

Alternate versions
The original version, released as 'Dementia', had no narration; that was added for the re-release under title 'Daughter of Horror.'

Quotes
Narrator: Come with me into the tormented, haunted, half-lit night of the insane. This is my world. Let me lead you into it. Let me take you into the mind of a woman who is mad. You may not recognize some things in this world, and the faces will look strange to you. For this is a place where there is no love, no hope...in the pulsing, throbbing world of the insane mind, where only nightmares are real, nightmares of the Daughter of Horror!
