This is a weird Hammer horror flick that seems more like an Alfred Hitchcock film with it's twisty-turny mystery plot and characters that are never quite what they seem to be. There are a couple of genuinely creepy bits, including a very disturbing mask, though the majority feels more like a family drama. Oliver Reed plays a fairly unlikeable spoiled rich alcoholic type and he seems custom made for this role. I'm not sure if hardcore Hammer fans would like this one but I found it to be a pretty solid offbeat watch.
