A superlative early 70s slasher with echoes of Psycho (1960) and Peeping Tom (1960), this unsettling production sees troubled protagonist John Harrington (Stephen Forsythe) turning to a life of serial killing. Refused a divorce by his uncaring wife, and haunted by childhood trauma John takes out his murderous frustrations on a string of would-be brides who innocently cross his path.

Undoubtedly an influence on later movies like Maniac (1980), and a host of other chillers, this often-overlooked piece from one of Europe’s finest, is a smart, beautifully stylised, gory delight.

Screening from an extremely rare full HD scan of an actual authentic, uncut 35mm copy of the film.

The screening on the evening of Friday 13th February will include an introduction from Fright Club’s Darrell Buxton.
