Shock (Beyond The Door 2). 1977
A woman moves into a house with her new husband and son, she starts to believe her son may be possessed by her late husband's spirit.
From Italian Film director Mario Bava and some uncredited help from his son Lamberto, brings us a story of haunting and possession with a slight twist in it. Daria Nicolodi stars as Dora, a happy care free wife and mother and ejoying a new life. David Colin plays Marco, her son who seems to step foot in the house and feels a presence their. John Steiner plays Bruno, Dora's husband who dismisses her claims of ghosts.
Even With Mario's direction and low budget, the film relies not on gore but on psychological terror that Daria brings to the movie with her performance being great. it may not be a great film but certainly enjoyable, worth a watch 6-7 out of 10.
