Cold and disturbing, this adaptation of the Broadway play is faintly ridiculous but compelling all the same.
Between ROSEMARY'S BABY and THE OMEN, we got this. James Mason, the actor's actor, elevates the material, Robert Preston proves that if you can do comedy you can do drama, and Beau Bridges doesn't fail.
The most engaging thing about the narrative, though, is waiting to figure-out if there would be an actually supernatural element.
So, maybe it's more like DOUBT before there was DOUBT?
watch this movie and you can see where Dead Poet's Society gets its inspiration

A little too schlocky and melodramatic for my tastes. It also didn't help that it couldn't decide who was the protagonist here and who was the antagonist...
