The Ghoul. 1975.
Two couples decide to have a race, when one car runs out of petrol and goes in search of a garage, the female driver goes to find shelter, she finds a house owned by a former priest who hides a secret.
Set in the 1920s-30s this has classic British horror all over it, dark foggy countryside, a house shrouded in mist and Peter Cushing playing a sinister character. John Hurt plays the caretaker to Cushing and can be quite a asshole at times that you want him to meet a bit of karma. Veronica Carlson plays the damsel in distress who doesn't heed the warning of "Don't go in to the house", hearing that really should be a good tip. Ian McCulloch plays the somewhat hero who goes in search of his friends. This is a dark gothic atmospheric chiller that to me is still entertaining from start to finish and Cushing's performance is always great to see.
