Description:
In this gripping psychological horror film, a dedicated pathologist embarks upon an unnerving experiment with a deaf-mute woman to prove his groundbreaking theory. He believes that humans die from sheer terror due to a creature he calls "The Tingler," which dwells within each individual's spinal cord and can only be kept in check through the act of screaming when frightened. The tension mounts as the pathologist pushes the woman, who is unable to scream because of her disabilities, into increasingly terrifying situations while attempting to uncover evidence of his mysterious organism. The film delves into themes of fear, disability, and the power of the human spirit in the face of terror.
