***SPOILERS*** Feeling that life is futile and wanting to end it all manic depressive Robert Manners, Steven Hall,attempts to kill himself by jumping off the ledge of a six floor building only to be rescued by the local fire department-with a net- before he hit the ground. Back home and still depressed as hell Manners gets an unexpected visit from Mr. J. Smith,Bartlett Ribinson, who works for this place The Thanatos Palace Hotel that helps people like him end their lives in the most painless ways possible: By them not knowing when their time is up and their about to kick of this earthly plane.
Getting ready for his final moment at the hotel Manners meets the lovely and caring Araine Shaw played by Rat Pack member Angie Dickinson of later-in 1974- "Big Bad Mama" fame who by getting it on with him makes Manners forget why he's there in the first place: To be put out of his miseries and put to sleep permanently. With Manners now wanting to live and escape from the "Death Hotel" he convinces Ariane to not only break out of the place with him but have a number of guests go along with them. Everything works like clockwork until those part of the break out realize the reason for their actions! And it's then that the roof caves in on the unsuspecting Manners.
***SPOILERS**** Manners badly miscalculated in his actions with both Araine and the people running the hotel. Alawys thinking that he's one step ahead Manners in the end stepped into a pile of well you know what and ended up burying. What Manners didn't quite realize is that his decision to end it all had no escape clause and as for Ariane going along with him she was the person who in fact set the poor guy up for his ultimate fate. A fate that he made for himself by agreeing to spend his time or final moments at the Thanatos Palace Hotel.
