A very good film in direction and acting, but the plot was ridiculous, a mad man with a shiny blad and a stick on a camera with a tiny sharp knife.
and talk about cheap at the begging of the movie "it will be two pound" twi pound for a blow job.
May of shocked others but a stupid plot and should of never of been made.
No offence to the director, he did do better films than this *beep*.

Thank you Mr. Valentine, well said (or typed). I have great respect for this film and have watched it many times without tiring of it.
shareHello Mr.Valentine.
I9 was never dissing this film ok, I thought it was good, but the plot was not my type of film.
Anyway who cares what my favorute films are, I am bloody fourteen, I mean is my favorite film lady chatterlie's lover or something!

Two pounds was a lot more money in 1960 than it is now.
Plus, you can't go around saying films have a stupid plot and should never have been made, just because it's not your kind of film.
If people only ever watched what they already knew and liked, then no-one's tastes would ever grow. This film was made in a totally different era by a different generation.
You shouldn't dismiss things so quickly, it makes you sound ignorant.
By all means, if you don't like a film then feel free to engage in logical discussion. Just logging on to a board, and declaring the film "should never have been made" is ridiculous.
And please, spell correctly, read your work before you post it. It was only a few lines. It wouldn't have killed you. Just makes it easier for everyone to understand you. There's no point in trying to tell people something if they can't understand you.

And Mark's newsagent employer sells the elderly gentleman a set of girlie pix for *four* pounds? Sheesh.
shareI think this film is one of the worst ever made. It's nearly as bad as the 'Battlefield Earth' travesty. Of course, nothing can be THAT bad...
shareWell, good for you.
Then, you think that ANY movie made for Lifetime or the Hallmark Channel is BETTER than is this...especially for the year in which it was made.
Do you think the original "Last House on the Left" is better?
Do you think any of the "Saw" movies are better?
I don't even DARE call those things called "Saw" films.
I think this was a very daring film to have made at the time in which it was.
If you're jaded now, it's not because of THIS film.
Give credit where credit is due.
They were very sactioned on what they could or could not say at that time, and I really believe that they branched out with this one.
To compare it to a "film" made simply to glorify a made-up religion (redundant), is totally ridiculous.
Supposedly, John Travlota has now reached the level wherein he can control space and time...YET, with B.E., he could NOT produce a blockbuster.
How dare you compare the two?
It's like comparing the cuisine of Julia Child to a NOS energy drink.

Aagh; you're a HEDGE!
"two quid is two pounds..."who told you that?mr.rogers?
shareYou do realize the types of problems involved with making a film of this nature at the time it was made, yes?
---------
Aagh; you're a HEDGE!
Since you were a grown-up and saw it back then, I guess you have carte blanche to say so.
---------
Aagh; you're a HEDGE!
By the way, what is a shiny "blad?"
---------
Aagh; you're a HEDGE!
No offense, but this thread is ridiculous. You're 14, you're most likely too young to appreciate the depth of a movie of this caliber. And that's not an insult, it's just the truth. 99% of kids couldn't grasp this movie.
