Back in the good old days, this slasher entry from Cannon (produced by head honchos, Menahem Golan and Yoram Globus) was released on an MGM-UA big box VHS with the more familiar title, Hospital Massacre, which at least sounds more fun than the film really is. The Scream Factory DVD-BD combo pack (which pairs this with Schizoid, another Cannon slasher from the day) carries it under the title X-Ray- referring to a pivotal piece of its meagre plot, in which Susan Jeremy (Barbi Benton) is mysteriously kept at the hospital, over an x-ray which alleges she has a terminal condition, while some maniac in a surgical mask slices and dices all the staff on the floor around her.
