Opis:

Protagonistica je mlada žena (Adrienne Barrett) koja jedne noći, naoružana nožem, odlazi u provod u problematičnu gradsku četvrt te doživljava niz neobjašnjivih i zastrašujućih događaja koji ostavljaju pitanje je li riječ o stvarnosti, noćnoj mori, ili potpunom gubitku razuma. Radnja je prikazana bez ijedne izgovorene riječi, iako se u filmu koriste zvučni efekti kao i jazz glazba Georgea Antheila. Demencija je snimljena u nezavisnoj produkciji s niskim budžetom. Samo snimanje dovršeno je 1953. ali na premijeru se moralo čekati dvije godine, dijelom zbog problema s cenzurom koja je u državi New York tražila drastično kraćenje zbog nasilnog i "uznemirujućeg sadržaja", a dijelom zbog inzistiranja distributera United Artists da se dosnimi naracija. I u takvoj verziji film je doživio loše kritike, a publika ga je uglavnom ignorirala. U Velikoj Britaniji nije odobren sve do 1970. Film je postao poznat tek zahvaljujući popularnom SF-hororu Gruda, zbog scene u kojoj posjetioce kinodvorane napada istoimeno čudovište upravo u trenutku dok se prikazuje Demencija. Kasniji kritičari uspoređivali su ga s klasičnim nijemim filmom Kabinet dr. Caligarija, odnosno Odvratnošću Romana Polanskog.
