Really loving these 60s hammer psycho-thrillers. The atmosphere and suspense is just top tier! This is definitely my favourite that I’ve watched so far. Pretty violent for the 60s. The performances were great too!

The films of Francis always have such visuals it’s hard not to love them. Not my favorite from him and not my favorite from Hammer but this is still a fun watch and worth seeing if you are a Hammer fan!
