Summaries

Life for the residents of a tower block begins to run out of control.

Class struggle becomes all too real as a young doctor moves into a modern apartment block in suburban 1975 London. Drugs, drink, and debauchery dissolve into murder, mayhem, and misogyny in this pseudo-post-apocalyptic breakdown of societal norms.—David R Turner

In 1970s London, Dr. Robert Laing moves into a new high-rise apartment building. It is soon apparent that there is a class divide between the wealthier upper-floor inhabitants and the middle-class lower-floor tenants. Over time, this escalates into full-blown war.—grantss

Synopsis

The unnerving tale of life in a modern tower block running out of control. Within the concealing walls of an elegant forty-storey tower block, the affluent tenants are hell-bent on an orgy of destruction. Cocktail parties degenerate into marauding attacks on 'enemy' floors and the once-luxurious amenities become an arena for technological mayhem...In this classic visionary tale, human society slips into violent reverse as the inhabitants of the high-rise, driven by primal urges, recreate a world ruled by the laws of the jungle.
