Just picked up Fright the other day for £6.50 brand new. Just watched it & I've fallen in love with the lovely Susan George all over again, especially in that mini dress!

Loved it!

Ian Bannen was suitably Psychotic

Was nice to see the pairing of George Cole & Dennis Waterman pre-Minder even though they don't share any screentime together

& as for Susan George..........

Wonder how many people are aware that this little gem of a British movie pretty much pre-dates every "babysitter in peril" movie ever made.

Predating Black Christmas by three years and Halloween by seven,it's a cracking little gem of a film.Very eerie and atmospheric.

Any other fans?
Anything featuring Susan George from this period is worth a watch to be honest. I have seen this film at least twice on tv, over the years, and I really enjoyed it. Could watch this film again right now. Its been a long time since I last saw this...
Black Christmas is a good creepy film, thats for sure. Creeped me out, the first couple of times that I saw this one. Very unsettling film, and so effective too. The ending is so creepy. Watch it with the lights on, thats my advice anyway...
I see what you mean now, concerning the similarities of these two films. WHEN A STRANGER CALLS used to s**t me up when I was a kid too. Remember kids, keep those lights on...The motherlicker was in the house the whole time! Freaky...

Cheers. I really liked her in STRAW DOGS, although the mentality of her character in this was questionable at best. Quirky and immature, cute, but kind of odd. It was an interesting role for sure. makes me wonder how the films Dustin Hoffman character, ever got together with her in the first place? He was very switched on, but as a couple, they were like "Chalk and Cheese", if you understand what I'm getting at here...
Yeah, I'm kind of drawn to the Women of cult movies more than any other, at times anyway...

Just rewatched this little classic.

Susan George babysits to Flash 'Arry & Cathy Gale. Not as outright nasty as Assault, it still stands the test of time. Busy year for Bannen as he excelled also in The Offence. Ahem.
