This is a 1962 thriller horror directed by Roger Kay and the stars includes Glynis Johns, Dan O'Herlihy and Richard Davalos.
A young woman named Jane has to exit her broken-down car in the middle of nowhere, to look for help. After a long time, she discovers a mansion, and is relived that the owner, named Caligari, invites her in for rest and comfort. However things take a dark turn for her, when she becomes paranoid that he's been spying on her. Other members of the house are always saying nice things about him though. She wants to leave but no one is letting her.
While this is quite a sinister story, there are very surprising twists. The other characters are suspicious although there is something not right going on with the house and especially Caligari. There are some issues that are minor, such as Jane walking for miles in high heel shoes. This is a remake of a 1920 German silent film called "The Cabinet of Dr Caligari."
I rate this a square 5/10
