Directed by David Eady, Wendy Toye, George More O'Ferrall
Produced by British Lion Film Corporation, Wessex Film Productions
A moody British anthology that weaves psychological mystery, supernatural intrusion, and revenge across three interconnected tales, emphasizing atmosphere and ambiguity over resolution.
An atmospheric British omnibus film presenting three tales of murder and the supernatural. In “In the Picture,” a museum attendant is drawn into the eerie world within a painting. In “You Killed Elizabeth,” two lifelong friends become suspects when the woman they both love is murdered. In “Lord Mountdrago,” a disgraced politician seeks revenge on a powerful statesman by exploiting his dreams. Linked by a recurring figure, the film blends psychological horror, mystery, and fantasy across its three interconnected stories.
