The Manchurian Candidate (1962)

Film Description

A suspenseful cold war thriller in which a Korean War hero is brainwashed by communists and returned to America to do their bidding. A dark and twisting tale with a dark ending, Lansbury excels as the coldly vicious mother, while the portrayal of the way the soldiers' minds have been completely overthrown is still shocking.
