Fear I'm the night 1972.
A young woman recovering from a nervous breakdown is leaving with her husband to work in a private boys school. She believes she is being terrorised by a one arm man but nobody believes her.
Judy Geeson (Doomwatch) plays young Peggy the woman slowly loosing her mind. Ralph Bates (Taste the blood of Dracula) plays her husband Robert. Joan Collins (Dynasty) plays the headmasters wife who seems to hate Peggy and Peter Cushing plays the headmaster.
This was a decent psychological film rather than a horror film, it shows how someone recovering from a nervous breakdown to slowly driven back to madness. It does start of slow and parts shown in flashbacks. This may not be a perfect hammer horror film but it is intruiging and has some tense moments even upto the climax of the film. 7 out of 10.
