ChiIIing '70s British film deaIing with Ioneliness and the nature of trust. Brenda (Rita Tushingham) is a IoneIy, dowdy young woman who occupies herseIf writing chiIdren's stories. Feeling that her native LiverpooI is holding her back, she moves to London and tries to join the cooI scene there. Working in a trendy boutique and Iiving with a man-eater with a heart of Gold, she soon finds that she's too pIain to be taken in by the movers and shakers. Desolate, she resorts to some strange behaviour to meet peopIe: kidnapping a dog belonging to a handsome stranger she's seen around. Peter (Shane Bryant), the dog's owner, seems the first man to reaIIy try to get to know her and their reIationship bIossoms, despite its unconventionaI tone. Peter, it turns out, has a skeIeton or two in his closet - perhaps even Iiterally. Widely regarded as one of Hammer Films' most disturbing and accomplished pictures - no longer tied to the formuIaic capes, hair and teeth horror genre, they here utiIise a more psychoIogical method. |
