The dream is unusually vivid: Bank employee Vince Grayson finds himself murdering a man in a sinister octagonal-shaped room lined with mirrors while a mysterious woman breaks into a safe. It is so vivid that Vince suspects it may have really happened. To get the dream off his mind, he goes on a picnic with some relatives. When a thunderstorm forces his party into a nearby mansion, Vince discovers that the bizarre room does exist, and it means nothing but trouble.

Monitored for Midnught Mausoleum via WQAD3:
Stylistically, they tried to do something here. But all performances land flat. Shout out to whoever did the crazy editing, it’s impressive for it’s time.
