Movie review
From Time Out Film Guide
Tired, old-fashioned thriller, with Elizabeth Taylor as that old stand-by: a woman recovering from a nervous breakdown who sees dead bodies in the boarded-up house across the garden, but naturally they have disappeared by the time the police arrive. Based on a stage play, it has a gratuitously bloody climax and a kick-yourself ending, but its amoebic plot is stretched almost to snapping point over 98 minutes. DMcG.Author: DMcG
