Das Haus des Satans (1978)

Das Haus des Satans: Directed by Richard Marquand. With Katharine Ross, Sam Elliott, John Standing, Ian Hogg. An American couple in England stumble upon a rambling mansion where a number of powerful individuals have been summoned by its patriarch regarding the home’s legacy.

“An excellent little movie, though it might be wasted on anyone likely to get disappointed by 1970s special effects or confused by the intrusion of a plot. Itu0026#39;s a well-made supernatural re-working of Agatha Christieu0026#39;s u0026quot;And then there were Noneu0026quot; (Originally u0026quot;Ten Little Nigger Boysu0026quot;) and starts when the descendents of a 17th century witch gather at an English country house in the hope of receiving part of the family legacy. Instead, they get a dose of poetic justice delivered from beyond the grave. Donu0026#39;t expect to be scared out of your skin, just entertained for a while.”
