04/16/2021 Old mother didn't deserve such an unruly son. See more delysid d 07/25/2018 its a pete walker movie thats sort of like the boring british equivalent to more exciting italian movies of the 70s. but it was kind of cool if youre a fan of this sort of thing See more 04/18/2017 Menudo pedazo de sorpresa acabó de descubrir. Una de las películas más retorcidas que jamás he tenido la suerte de ver. Ambientación espeluznante, personajes creíbles y sobretodo, un Anthony Sharp que debería haber formado parte de cualquier antología de asesinos desde el minuto uno. Sensacional es decir poco, muy poco. See more 06/18/2013 Jenny is stalked by an obsessed priest in THE CONFESSIONAL, from 1976! Pete Walker returns with another fiendish plot as he lashes out against the questionable methods of the Catholic church. When Jenny wanders in to the wrong confessional booth, her sins are recorded and used to blackmail her into submission by the crazed Father Meldrum, who has suffered from years of sexual repression from his mother and the church. Walker quickly sets the mood for mystery and suspense, while creating a constant sense of unease as the wayward priest presses his parishioners for more lurid details about their personal lives in order to "absolve" them of their sins. When that doesn't work, Meldrum enforces his own deadly form of penance upon his victims! Anthony Sharp is wickedly entertaining as Father Meldrum, who is joined by Walker favorite Sheila Keith as his permissive assistant. Susan Penhaligon and Norman Eshley are quite enjoyable as Jenny and Father Cutler, as well. THE CONFESSIONAL is a twisted and sadistic little shocker that is sure to please fans of ALICE, SWEET ALICE and ABSOLUTION. -Carl Manes I Like Horror Movies See more 12/11/2012 Some Seventies 42nd street swil, not a bad movie, 2 1/2 stars 12-7=12 See more 05/26/2012 Mildly entertaining trash.
