There's some influence from the burgeoning giallo films, but here done with a drab, autumnal early '70s British approach, which is actually interesting.

Rated: 7/10

Eye for Film

Geeson is impressive in a role which requires her to show weakness and mental fragility yet still keep viewers identifying with her.

Rated: 3/5

The story was constructed in too much of a mechanical way to excite me.

this is for the Hammer film starring Ralph Bates + Peter Cushing, for some reason Flixster has changed it into a page about some emo band

(38%) A watchable murder thriller that gets by with a decent set of performances and good direction. It won't change the world, but it's far from terrible.

A Hammer horror with a contemporary setting, but its nowhere near as edgy than the period pieces we are used to seeing pre-1970's - but with Peter Cushing and Joan Collins in the cast list it has a presence at least.

The same title as the DeForest "It seemed as if my brain was handcuffed" Kelley vehicle but a very different beast; this is a late-period Hammer psychodrama with excellent acting (particularly Judy Geeson as Peggy, the mentally fragile girl who keeps getting attacked by a bounder in leather gloves - I suppose, as it's the early '70s, Alvin Stardust could be a suspect), some predictable yet satisfying twists in the tale, and a quite brilliantly eerie musical score by John McCabe.

Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars

The synopsis above is for a Fear Factory music video DVD! As far as I know Jimmy Sangster didn't direct that one though. The Hammer film is a solid psychological-thriller with a decent twist the kind of which has been used replicated quite frequently in recent years. The cast was strong and the plot was better than some of the recent Hammer productions.

Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars

Plodding and dated thriller. Another film with a very weak female lead character who is almost completely helpless to help herself after she is repeatedly attacked by a black-gloved assailant.
