A classy screen adaptation of Noel Coward's play about the problems caused to Rex Harrison's second marriage by the spirit of his dead wife who appears at a seance and proceeds to bug his new wife. Decent, dated special effects and the screenplay a fine example of Coward's finest wit.

An intelligent and genuinely creepy adaptation of Edgar Allen Poe's novel.

WHISTLE AND I'LL COME TO YOU (1963)
CertificationU Our Rating
A chilling story of the supernatural, adapted from a story by the Victorian writer M R James, set in the bleak Norfolk landscape and revolving around the horrifying consequences of one man's intellectual pride. Made in 1968 by the BBC, as part of its Omnibus series, and with the deceptively innocuous rating of 'PG', 'Whistle and I'll Come to You' is a beautifully realised and haunting tale of terror.
