Richard Loncraine directs Mia Farrow, Keir Dullea and Tom Conti in this horror where a grieving mother moves into a house with a dark secret.

A London Don’t Look Now. With Rosemary’s Baby’s wet fragile mum. More chiller than terror, the mystery doesn’t go anywhere all that peculiar. There is a haunted radiator. A turtle death. A threatening revelation in an old drunk’s flop house. The only truly shocking moment though is the opening death of the doomed daughter. More drab than exciting.
