Nightmare (1981)

Nightmare (also released as  Nightmares in a Damaged Brain)  is a 1981  slasher film directed by  Romano Scavolini. Nightmare gained instant notoriety among horror fans when it was banned in the UK as a video nasty and its distributor was sentenced to 18 months in prison for refusing to edit one second of violent footage.  The film also garnered controversy for claiming in its press material that  Tom Savini had provided the film's special effects, which Savini vehemently denied.
