| User ReviewChischilly 1great movie, love the title. Metallica comes to mind! |
| User ReviewJames RBRILLIANT! Tallulah rocks my world! i love the scene where she guzzles the scotch. watched it for the first time in a long time last night and it's brilliant camp. tallulah beats out bette davis, olivia de havilland and joan crawford for the #1 60's camp queen! |
| User ReviewAntonio ATwenty years later, I still have to sleep with the lights on after watching this... |
| User ReviewTristan PSuperb psychological horror from the unbeatable tram of Richard Matheson and Hammer Films. Easily the best of Hammer's What Ever Happened to Baby Jane?/Psycho influenced films. Always great to see Donald Sutherland. |
| User ReviewCody HEnjoyable suspense and twists to the very end! |
| User ReviewRafiq UI can finally review this movie after remembering it's name. A surprisingly suspenseful movie that is also a really great example of a thriller compared to the crap that comes out nowadays and of course, you can't beat Donald Sutherland. |
| User ReviewMyles LTallulah Bankhead joins the list of faded hollywood stars forced to become camp Scream Queens in the 60's. this grand guingol Hammer film, finds Tallulah as bible bashing, gun toting and completely insane Mrs Trefoyle, kidnapping and terrifying a suitably whimpering Stefanie Powers. Fabulous daahlings. |
