"Do you want me to do a cartwheel and make a speech?"
10 February 2018
Warning: Spoilers
John Preston arrives in the fictional small town of Deanbridge and begins to rise financially and socially and eventually gets engaged to the local banker's daughter. Everything is going well until he starts to have dreams about murder. A newly arrived psychiatrist Dr. Peter Walton gets involved with his nightmares. A low budget quota film that proceeds along without creating much excitement or thrills.

In a starring role Christopher Lee is unfortunately saddled with an odd accent which diminishes his effectiveness somewhat but does look appropriately confident or haunted when necessary. Dr. Walton is played well by Alexander Knox but he only appears later on in the film which is a shame as the few scenes between Lee and Knox are the best in the film. The rest of the cast pale in comparison to Lee and Knox.

Bearable but rather on the slow side.
