Let’s Scare Jessica to Death is a 1971 low budget American horror film, directed by John D. Hancock, and starring Zohra Lampert in the title role. The film focuses on a recently institutionalized woman who has various nightmarish experiences after moving to an old farmhouse on a Connecticut island. In 2006, the Chicago Film Critics Association named Let’s Scare Jessica to Death the 87th scariest film ever made[1].
Making little impact during its theatrical release, the film later became a staple of late night TV, where it became a cult favorite.
