This is a great film especially iff you like me are a peter cushing fan ive watched dvd all through abd its great and also a great seller I purchaced of thanks
Brooding, atmospheric Hammer thriller about a bride who goes to live at the school where her husband is a teacher and quickly finds that terror lurks among the textbooks. The story is, naturally, tosh but the acting of all concerned - especially Peter Cushing as the troubled headmaster - holds it together. The newlyweds are Judy Geeson and Ralph Bates and there is a nicely OTT turn by Joan Collins as the head's wife. A Must for Hammer fans.
One of my favourite Jimmy Sangster Hammer thrillers, with excellent performances from all the cast, especially Ralph Bates and Peter Cushing. The deserted school location instills a sense of unease, especially with the recording of the children resonating around the empty rooms. As is usual with Anchor Bay, the DVD comes with extras, which is why I always go for the US releases, rather than the basic UK versions.
Classic later film of one of the finest talent's in British horror, Peter Cushing take's the defining performance in a latter day Hammer psychological thriller, that paved the way for the later post-gothic contemporary production's, as well as thier translation to contemporary theme's of horror on television, ie-the timeless 'Hammer House Of Horror" & 'Hammer House Of Mystery And Suspence", it's also another engaging performance from the late & great Ralph Bates, also a star turn from Judy Geeson, it's one of Hammer's best later production's with one of the best and I cannot emphasise this enough....Peter Cushing, one to watch again & rediscover.
