Synopsis
The Iron Rose (1973) follows a young couple who, after meeting at a wedding, wander into a sprawling cemetery during a casual outing. As darkness falls and the gates close, they fail to locate an exit, and their confinement within the labyrinthine grounds leads to mounting panic and erratic behavior. This surreal horror drama develops creeping unease, with isolation, psychological instability, and mortality distorting behavior.
