The mask

DVD 2015

After the death of a disturbed patient, psychiatrist Dr. Allan Barnes (Paul Stevens) comes into possession of the ancient tribal mask that drove the young man to his doom. When Barnes puts on the mask, he is assailed with nightmarish visions of monsters, occultists, and ritual torture. He continues to explore this terrifying new psychic world--even as the mask reveals a latent violence in Barnes's own nature that threatens those closest to him.
