The Tenth Level (1976)
With William Shatner, Ossie Davis, Lynn Carlin, Estelle Parsons, Stephen Macht, Lindsay Crouse, John Travolta
Directed by Charles S. Dubin
The Tenth Level is a 1976 American made-for-television drama film movie starring William Shatner. Inspired by the Stanley Milgram obedience research, this TV movie chronicles a psychology professor's study to determine why people, such as the Nazis, were willing to "just follow orders" and do horrible things to others. Professor Stephen Turner (Shatner) leads students to believe that they are applying increasingly painful electric shocks to other subjects when they fail to perform a task correctly, and is alarmed to see how much pain the students can be convinced to inflict "in the name of science".
