Plot

A private detective goes undercover in an asylum in search of a judge who is hiding out from the police. The detective was hired by a pretty reporter that's sure that the judge is hiding out in the private sanitarium. The reporter and P.I. begin to fall in love as well as falling more and more into danger from abusive attendants and other guests of the asylum. Other inmates include a arsonist patient and 'The Champ,' a man who attacks anyone thats put into a room with him.

Reviews for the movie when released on DVD in 2002 were mixed. , found that they don't make B-movies like they used to. He wrote this of Behind Locked Doors: "A probable inspiration for Sam Fuller's Shock Corridor
, Doors suffers in comparison; Fuller made transcendent B-movies, and this isn't one. In just about every other respect, however, it's everything it should be: fast-paced, stylishly shot, a little lurid, a little topical, and thoroughly entertaining."
