4/10
A haunting 1981 obscurity that stays on your mind despite not making much sense.

Warning: Spoilers
Edward Woodward stars in this 1981 obscurity about a teenage schoolgirl violinist with an insatiable need for attention from her father.

The opening five minutes are super creepy, and the movie breaks with the tradition of British Horror that is the old gothic castles and flowing black cloaks, by focusing on a contemporary family living in the suburbs. The flat TV movie feel of the production also adds to the overall creepiness, giving the whole thing a dream like atmosphere. Unfortunately the story is hard to follow and makes little sense, and the super scary prologue seems to have no relevance to a plot which ultimately sees Woodward drive his Ford Granada off a cliff top.
