Invisible Creature

Supernatural thriller. A woman inherits an old country house from her late aunt, and moves in with her wastrel husband. He soon begins an affair with a local woman, and before long he's plotting to murder his wife. But the resident ghost has other ideas... Tony Wright and Patricia Dainton are good as the husband and wife, whilst Sandra Dorne is perfectly cast as the local trash he takes up with (she seemed to specialise in these sorts of roles). Nice to see popular character actor Sam Kydd as the local property developer interested in buying the house. Pretty enjoyable. 6/10.

The idea for this Ghost story was a good one, unfortunately it didn't work quire how I hoped. I liked the idea of the poltergeist, the back story was fine, but the rest of the movie felt rushed, the 'sexy' lover was far inferior to the wife and the acting, especially from the Husband and lover, was awful. A missed opportunity.

This reminds me of an 80s movie for some reason. Lighthearted horror. I keep picturing the actors with perms and hawaiian shirts instead of the classier attire they're wearing. It is a fun movie but it's not exciting or innovative. The sort of stuff your mom watches on tv in the background while buying new drapes online.

This sort of film was quite popular in the fifties and sixties.A poltergeist or ghost making its presence felt.The whole effect here is quite successful up to a point.Unfortunately this point is the climax.The poltergeist decides that it has had enough of Tony wright and his dalliance with Sandra Dorne and rolls a burning coal from an unguarded fire.It conveniently ensures that the fire creeps upstairs to where they are having a fun time in the marital bedroom.The door and windows wont open till its too late and eventually Wright and Dorne and the house are reduced to ashes.I was hoping for a rather more chilling climax.

David and Jean Linton (Tony Wright and Patricia Dainton) are a quarrelsome couple who inherit THE HOUSE IN MARSH ROAD. Upon their arrival at the residence, unexplained events start happening right away. David, a struggling writer with a taste for the bottle, seems to be in a constant snit, never satisfied with anything. While he fumes, Jean learns that their new property comes with a little something extra. Something -someone?- that just may be causing the mysterious mischief. When Jean goes out for the day, David invites the beautiful Valerie Stockley (Sandra Dorne) over to do some "typing". Meanwhile, more odd occurrences take place, infuriating David and reinforcing Jean's belief that they are not alone. Toad that he is, it's not long before David decides that it's time for Jean to have an "accident", since Valerie's such a good "typist" and all! Well, old David's in for a big surprise! This is a very enjoyable British thriller with a fiery finale...

Missing from David Pirie's filmography in 'A Heritage of Horror' (1973) despite Pirie praising director Montgomery Tully's oeuvre overall as seeming "to be impressively consistent both in style and content". This overlooked little gem anticipating 'The Night of the Eagle' resembles a Chabrol marital drama produced by Val Lewton, as a poltergeist intervenes in a serious marital spat between Tony Wright & Patricia Dainton; with Sandra Dorne as the peroxide blonde Other Woman. Recommended.

Low budget British movie about a troubled married couple whose luck changes when the wife inherits a house along with a small fortune. Said house comes complete with a ghost - a poltergeist to be exact - known as Patrick! Tony Wright is good as the devious, drunken husband whilst Patricia Dainton looks gorgeous as his suffering wife. Relatively tame but engaging supernatural thriller that does manage a few sudden creepy moments, it is well acted, charming and at 70 minutes long is perfect in length. I really enjoyed this movie.
