Most brilliant "haunted house" film ever.
I saw this film when it was released in 1980 (I was 15) and i have never been so frightened in a theatre before or since. There are a number of excellent supernatural thrillers through the years, but none are as intelligent and frightening as this gem. The only one I would call it's possible equal is 1963 The Haunting.
Just my opinion :)
