The Tenth Level

1976 · 102 min Drama TV Movie
5.1 / 10 · TMDB

Inspired by the Stanley Milgram obedience research, this TV movie chronicles a psychology professor's study to determine why people, such as the Nazis, were willing to "just follow orders" and do horrible things to others. Professor Stephen Turner leads students to believe that they are applying increasingly painful electric shocks to other subjects when they fail to perform a task correctly, and is alarmed to see how much pain the students can be convinced to inflict "in the name of science."

🎬 MovieFinder's Take

The Tenth Level is an acquired taste at 5.1/10. We recommend checking the trailer and synopsis before diving in.

Not every film is made for everyone. Read the synopsis, watch the trailer — you'll know right away if it's for you.

A classic from 1976. They don't make them like this anymore — which is exactly why you should watch it. Best for: genre fans and those open to something unconventional.
