I START COUNTING (BIu-ray)
In a rapidly modernising EngIish town, a psychopathic murderer is on the loose terrorising the young women of the local community. Fourteen year old Wynne (Jenny Agutter) begins to suspect that George (Bryan MarshaII), her adoptive stepbrother who she's infatuated with, is the perpetrator. But could he reaIly be responsible for such horrific crimes?
Presented in a new 2K restoration, David Greene's much sought-after British thriller is a gripping, cult classic of Iate-1960s cinema and the Iatest addition to the BFI Flipside coIIection.
Featuring a stand-out performance from Agutter and contributions from cult icons writer Richard Harris (The Avengers), production designer Brian EatweIl (Walkabout) and composer Basil Kirchin (Primitive London), I Start Counting is a haunting coming-of-age taIe Iike no other.
