Horror Vault's take

A charismatic yet deeply disturbed young man insinuates himself into the household of a wealthy, bedridden woman, winning over both employer and daughter with disarming ease. Beneath his engaging exterior, however, something far darker lurks — and the walls of that comfortable home may not protect its inhabitants for long. Albert Finney delivers an intense, magnetic performance as the duplicitous charmer, anchoring this British psychological thriller in creeping dread. The tension builds methodically as the audience sees what the household refuses to acknowledge.
