1969 ·1h 31m · ★ 4.7 (35)

Teenagers in an old mansion are being murdered one by one. The survivors must discover who among them is the killer before they're all finished off.

Why it matters

A shaggy, late-’60s murder mystery tangled in stylish youth culture and haunted house tropes, with a vibe that’s half psychedelic party, half slasher setup.

  • Early Michael Armstrong work derailed by studio interference, but still a window into late ’60s British horror ambitions.
  • Costume design alone is a feast for fans of vintage fashion-infused genre cinema—those floral shirts and bell bottoms are iconic.
  • More atmosphere and era flavor than tightly plotted suspense—best for viewers who savor mood over mystery coherence.
  • A curious artifact of the transition from gothic chills to the coming slasher boom, with a cast caught between innocence and menace.
