Summary
Dr. Richard Thorndyke, a psychiatrist suffering from severe vertigo, arrives to take over the Psycho-Neurotic Institute for the Very, Very Nervous, only to discover that something sinister is going on behind the scenes. As he investigates, he must confront both a conspiracy by the institute's scheming staff and his own crippling fear of heights. A Mel Brooks comedy that lovingly parodies the films of Alfred Hitchcock.
