The Nightcomers. 1971.
Groundskeeper at a secluded estate Peter Quint has a strong hold over two children Miles and Flora and governess Miss Jessel.
Somewhat prequel to the story The Turn Of The Shrew, this focuses on Peter Quint who seems quite mild and loving round the children but also has a dark sinister side. Marlon Brando plays Irishman Quint who seems to enjoy a bit of BDSM with Stephanie Beacham who plays the governess. Director Michael Winner does try to add the element of gothic to the story and a form of witchcraft which does seem to blend in well in some parts but was a bit surprised with the downfall of Quint on how that was portrayed, it does have the elements of being a psychological horror rather than point horror.
