aka Dynasty of Fear. Honeymoon of Fear. "You're safe now."
Peggy Heller (Judy Geeson) is a young woman who joins her husband at the boarding school where he works. They hope that the quiet of the countryside will help her recovering from a nervous breakdown she suffered after being assaulted. Once there she starts to be plagued with the fear that she is being attacked by a one armed man, attacks that she maintains are real but no one else believes. Prefering to put it down to nightmares, symptoms of her reported mental health problems. Problems that are not helped when she meets the headmaster Michael Carmichael (Peter Cushing), who happens to only have one arm!
Another suspenseful thriller from Hammer. This begins slowly and throws in a number of twists to try and out fox the viewer, but for all that the film never really grabs the attention fully.
