The Uninvited

Seeking respite from London life, a writer (Ray Milland) and his sister (Ruth Hussey) move into a neglected Cornish clifftop mansion. However, it isn’t long before an unnerving presence makes itself felt. “This is an impressive supernatural thriller.” (Time Out)

“With its atmospheric Cornish locations and an all-star cast, The Uninvited is a highly effective and spine-tingling ghost story in the classic Hollywood tradition.

“Allen’s direction tightens the screws of tension to genuinely frightening effect, aided by beautiful camerawork in the noir style from Charles Lang. The real strength of the film, though, is its atypical stance part way between psychology and the supernatural, achieving a disturbingly serious effect.” (Time Out)
