Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaRichard Burton turned down an offer to play King Lear on stage in Canada in order to make this movie.
- GoofsIn the tennis match, a close shot of Benjie shows him serving whilst standing in the right service court (which would be illegal) but the long shot shows him serving from the baseline (legal). The score is 30-all, so he should be serving from the right side of the baseline, but is shown serving from the left side.
- Quotes
Benjie: What I told you before as a joke, I made happen. I killed him.
Father Goddard: I do not believe you!
Benjie: You must Father. What would be the point of playing the same joke twice?

A Forgotten Gem
I got this film in the 50-pack Drive-in Collection. I had forgotten all about this movie.. I popped it in and about 1/3 of the way into the film I remembered seeing this one a few years ago. WOW what a pleasant blast from the past. So glad they included this forgotten gem in the collection!
Yes this film is good - it's my kind of a mystery-thriller. Although the film is not a horror film, it does get creepy - very creepy. Fans of classic horror movies should enjoy this film along with fans of mystery thrillers. Just an excellent film!
The film does start slow... but it is worth it in the end. There is a reason for this seemingly slow start - it will make sense in the end.
Great late night flick. One that you will not want to miss anything so have your drink and food ready!
9.5/10
