Directed by Harley Cokeliss • 1988 • United Kingdom
Starring Jemma Redgrave, Kathleen Wilhoite, Timothy Spall
A young bride-to-be’s anxieties over her upcoming wedding take on a horrifying, demonic form in this underseen shocker from director Harley Cokeliss. As her marriage to a decorated war hero draws near, well-heeled Diana (Jemma Redgrave) moves into her sprawling new London home, where she starts to experience strange and terrifying nightmares. But are these blood-curdling night terrors merely the symptom of an unsettled mind, or the sign of something far more sinister at work? Hounded by a pair of sleazy journalists (Timothy Spall and Jimmy Nail), Diana soon crosses paths with an American tourist (Kathleen Wilhoite) who appears to have a strange connection to the foreboding house and its sinister past.
