00:03:20♪♪
00:03:30Yes, yes, you'll be marvellously happy here.
00:03:33Excuse me.
00:03:36Oh, I'm sorry.
00:03:41It's on the first floor.
00:03:43I keep saying room, but it's more teeny apartment really.
00:04:00Oh, it's lovely.
00:04:01It's not bad.
00:04:03Yes.
00:04:04Everything's all sweet.
00:04:07Except the bathroom, and that's just across the hall.
00:04:10Ah.
00:04:12It's fantastic, isn't it, Chrissie?
00:04:14A lot better than we expected, but I don't think we can afford it.
00:04:17Um, Mrs...
00:04:18Oxy.
00:04:19Oxy.
00:04:20See, we're kind of on a budget.
00:04:21How much would you say was fair?
00:04:23Don't you have a set price?
00:04:24I like people to be happy.
00:04:26Well, we had set our limit at £24 a month.
00:04:28Well, let's call it that then.
00:04:30You can move in right away if you want to.
00:04:33But we have to get our luggage from the station.
00:04:35Don't you want references?
00:04:36I like you, my dears.
00:04:37I want you to have it.
00:04:40You bet.
00:04:42She wants us to.
00:05:10Ah.
00:05:12Relic of a previous owner.
00:05:21Very previous.
00:05:22If this paper's anything to go by.
00:05:251852.
00:05:27What?
00:05:28Yes.
00:05:29Are you kidding?
00:05:30Oh, it is.
00:05:32Let's see.
00:05:33Oh, look.
00:05:36You do like it here, don't you, Chrissie?
00:05:38Of course I like it.
00:05:40It just seemed too good to be true, that's all.
00:05:44You do like it here, don't you, Chrissie?
00:05:46Of course I like it.
00:05:48It just seemed too good to be true, that's all.
00:06:13It just seemed too good to be true, that's all.
00:06:43It just seemed too good to be true, that's all.
00:06:44It just seemed too good to be true, that's all.
00:07:1312 years later
00:07:32Chrissie, up!
00:07:43Oh good morning. You must be one of the new tenants. Gillian Pemberton yes.
00:07:56Colonel Wright. I didn't expect anyone else to be up this early. Ex-soldier and
00:08:01all that. Old habits die hard. Besides this is the most marvelous time of day.
00:08:43Oh dear. Hello. What's your name? Teddy's broken. Oh dear. He is isn't he?
00:08:56Well maybe he's all broken up like that because you loved him too much huh? He's
00:09:01just a toy. He isn't real. Oh but he's a friendly toy. I wish he was real. Don't
00:09:08you have any real animals? A cat or a dog or anything? No I wish I did. Oh well
00:09:14maybe for Christmas or your birthday huh? Oh there you are. I do hope he hasn't
00:09:20been bothering you. Not at all. We were just getting acquainted. I think you met
00:09:24my husband last evening. I'm mrs. Patrick. Emma. I'm Chrissie
00:09:29Morton. It's nice to know you. Hello. Hello. And there's my roommate Gillian
00:09:33Pemberton. This is mrs. Patrick. Hello. Well now there's anything I can do to
00:09:37help you settle in. We're right next door. You just have to knock. Thank you
00:09:41very much. Come along then Jonathan. Come along Jonathan. You're gonna be late
00:09:51aren't you? My class doesn't start until 1015. Oh lucky you. Oh here have a sip of
00:10:00this. Oh great. Mmm lovely. Okay I'll see you tonight then. Bye bye.
00:11:00Marvellous. Marvellous. Thanks a lot. Try to put those things in the kitchen. I'm
00:11:26Gillian Pemberton. John Elgar. I thought these would brighten up the place a bit.
00:11:37Very pretty. Yes they'll be very pretty. An echo of yourself.
00:11:57I keep telling Chrissie she's my roommate. How lucky we are to have this place.
00:12:03Everyone's so nice. Gillian. Aha. What's going on? I thought these would sort of
00:12:13personalize the place a bit. John's been helping me. He lives down the hall. This
00:12:17is John Elgar by the way. Chrissie Morton. Hi John. How are you? Hello. Oh. Oh no. Is he cute?
00:12:24Is he for us? No. For Jonathan the little boy next door. Will Mrs. Oxley let him
00:12:29keep it? Oh I never thought of that. Don't worry Mrs. Oxley's wild about cats.
00:12:34You won't have a problem there I promise you. Oh I hope not. I'm gonna go give it
00:12:38to him before he goes to bed. Excuse me.
00:12:44Yoo-hoo. What a marvellous surprise and such a kind thought. Oh well he was
00:12:54saying this morning how he'd like a real animal. Just so happened that the
00:12:58janitor it's oh I guess you call him a caretaker here. Well anyway he was gonna
00:13:02have him put away and I just couldn't let it happen.
00:13:05Now you sure you don't mind too much? Mind? What is there to mind? A little thing
00:13:09like that. It's it's marvelous of you. And what do you say Jonathan? Come on
00:13:16Jonathan. Say thank you to Miss Morton. He's marvelous. We don't seem to have brought him
00:13:21up very well. Oh he's just excited that's all. Will you come in and have a
00:13:25drink with us Chrissie? Oh yeah I've got to help Jillian with dinner another time.
00:13:30Any other time. Thanks again.
00:13:36Well that deserves a cup of coffee or some supper if you'd like. Coffee would
00:13:52be fine. I've some work to catch up on later.
00:13:57I'll bet he flipped. Jonathan the kitten. No no not flipped exactly but he was
00:14:05pleased. Marvelously pleased. We do have some biscuits don't we? Yeah I think so.
00:14:14John have you lived here long? Quite a while. You must know most the people in
00:14:19the house then huh? Know all of them. Well who lives upstairs? Why you two. No no I mean at the very top of the
00:14:29house. Oh you mean Mr. C. Mr. C. The oldest inhabitant. Been here longer than
00:14:34any of us. Longer than Mrs. Oxy? Even her. I think he comes with a house. A part of
00:14:40it. Well I haven't seen him yet. Well he's pretty old you know. Something of a recluse.
00:14:46But you'll see him sooner or later. You're bound to. He's handsome, cultured,
00:14:53intelligent and single. Who is? John. John Elka. What are you looking for?
00:15:03A blue bra. I was gonna wear it tomorrow. It's in the top drawer. No it was but maybe
00:15:11I put it in the wash.
00:15:17Did you hear that? That's probably the kid next door having a nightmare.
00:15:38It didn't sound like that. It sounded like an animal.
00:15:46Let's go.
00:16:16What are you doing? Chrissie my dear. That's the door to the cellar. The stairs are steep and very uneven.
00:16:30You might have had a terrible accident. We don't want that do we? No. The back
00:16:37door is there my dear. Ah fine thanks.
00:17:17It was last night. I must have left the window open. I don't know how the poor
00:17:21little thing managed to climb up there but it obviously did and fell. We didn't
00:17:26know about it ourselves until this morning and then I found it lying in the
00:17:29yard. Poor little thing. I hid it. Didn't want Jonathan to see it. You understand?
00:17:35We didn't know how to tell you either. Of course we would have told you.
00:17:40Eventually. We're terribly sorry. Terribly.
00:17:47Oh they must still be here. I didn't know they were here. You haven't seen them have you Chrissie?
00:18:09What? My tights. The ones with the pattern on. You haven't seen them have you? No.
00:18:15I suppose you don't have a class this morning. No. Look I don't mind if you
00:18:21borrow them as long as you tell me. I don't have them Jillian. Take a pair of
00:18:24mine. Oh thanks. What are you gonna do with yourself this morning? I don't know.
00:18:36Go somewhere and think.
00:18:45I hope you've forgiven me. Collision, suitcase, red polka dot pants all over
00:18:58the road. Yes. I'm gonna make it more formal this time. Masters. Gary Masters.
00:19:05Really how interesting to meet you Gary and what do you do? Well I'm here in
00:19:10London on an art scholarship but my home is in Cambridge. How interesting and what
00:19:15do you do? I'm sorry my name is Chrissie Morton. I'm a student too. Did you
00:19:22eventually get a room in that house? Yeah. That's darn funny. Why? Well they
00:19:28wouldn't even answer the door to me. Never mind I got a room a couple of
00:19:31streets away. Perhaps they were saving the room especially for you and your
00:19:34friend. Why do you say that? No reason. Just something to say. Hey you look like
00:19:43somebody in need of a friend and I'm a very friendly fellow. It's nothing. From a
00:19:49woman that always means it is something. It's just crazy. Well try me.
00:19:56Well it's that house. It gives me the creeps. Well then move. I can't. Why?
00:20:03Well that'd be silly. The place is fine. The rent is ridiculously low. Then what is it?
00:20:09I don't know. I can't put my finger on it. Just the architecture. Well those old
00:20:16Victorian places they seem to have a fustiness all their own. Full of nooks
00:20:19and crannies and memories. Maybe that is it. The atmosphere. I'll let you know.
00:20:28Well you are going to ask me back for a drink sometime aren't you?
00:20:34An art student? An art scholarship. What's the difference?
00:20:38Well anybody can be an art student. An art scholarship means it means that
00:20:43somebody believes you have talent enough to support you and develop it.
00:20:48Well what time do you arrive? About half an hour.
00:21:18What do you think you're doing in there? Come out here right now. What's going on?
00:21:43Look in there. What? Look look in there. I just found him in there looking at me
00:21:49in the bathroom. Now that's ridiculous. I mean a little boy like that is... I'll take
00:21:54care of him. Don't you worry. I'll take care of him. You come with me young man.
00:21:58Come on. Now what do you mean by this? You've really done it this time haven't you?
00:22:03Come on in. Inside we go.
00:22:33Oh that's scary. Would you let him in please? Well are you sure you want to see
00:22:58him just now? Yeah I'll be all right. Okay.
00:23:03Oh.
00:23:18Hello I'm... Gary Masters. Yes I know. Chrissie told me all about you. I'm...
00:23:22Gillian Pemberton. Yes I know. Chrissie told me. Well come right this way.
00:23:29Well I don't feel it. Feel what? The air of pervading evil. I can see Chrissie's
00:23:35been telling you lots of things. All I detect is the air of mustiness. A few
00:23:41open windows would soon cure it. I don't know. It just might be a poltergeist
00:23:46lurking somewhere. Do you know I've lost three pairs of underwear in the last two
00:23:49days. Well you can laugh. A girl can catch an awful cold. Hi. I've solved the
00:24:01problem. I'll be with you a minute Gary. About the house. I know what's wrong with it.
00:24:04It's dead as a dodo. Died a long time ago. Could be revived though. Some bright
00:24:08paint. Truckload of new furnishings or even better a good demolition gang.
00:24:13You've been crying. Would you like a cup of coffee? What's wrong Chrissie? There's been a
00:24:18nasty incident. What here? Yes. Well tell me about it Chrissie. Well there's this kid next door.
00:24:22Yes there's a kid next door and a poor little kitten in this awful house. Hey hey you are in a state.
00:24:30Come on sit down. What's been happening? Well Chrissie went in to take a bath. And?
00:24:36Well there was this kid looking. Looking? Threw a hole in the wall. A peeping Tom
00:24:41you know. Oh well that's a rotten thing. Look it could have been worse. I mean it
00:24:48was just a kid. Well what about the other things? What about the kitten that was...
00:24:54It fell from the window. Oh what about the people then? Those marvelous, marvelous, marvelous people. What do you mean?
00:25:02Haven't you noticed? Marvelous. That's the number one adjective around here.
00:25:09Marvelous. Don't you remember? It's gonna be a marvelous day. We're going to be
00:25:15marvelously happy here. Even that poor little kitten was marvelous. Don't you
00:25:21understand? You've got to take it easy. Come on. Gary I'm sorry. Please just leave me alone.
00:25:30Put her to bed or something. I'll call her in the morning.
00:25:37Ciao.
00:25:46Look Chrissie. Wait. Look Jillian. I know you can think I'm crazy and this is
00:25:53illogical and irrational but we've got to get out of this house. Oh Chrissie.
00:25:57I don't know what it is but I feel it. It's something wrong. We've got to get out of here before it's too late.
00:26:02Really. Now tell me we can go. We'll pack up today. Okay. Don't get so upset. I'm sorry. We'll leave if you want to leave.
00:26:10Okay. Let's wait until the end of the month. We're all paid up until then. Oh it
00:26:15doesn't matter. Chrissie. The end of the month. We'll leave then. I promise.
00:26:32Good morning. Good morning. You look very pretty this morning. Thank you.
00:27:02Very pretty. Good morning. I believe you rent rooms here. Yes I don't know if
00:27:14there's anything available right now. I'm not looking for a room. I I just wanted
00:27:18to talk to whoever runs this place. Oh that's mrs. Oxy. Come in please.
00:27:25Mrs. Oxy. Mrs. Oxy. I'm sorry I guess she isn't here right now. Oh then maybe you
00:27:42could help me. Does this girl live here? No. And you never saw her before? No sorry.
00:27:49Oh well it wasn't much of a hope. Who is she? It's my daughter Sally. Is she missing?
00:27:57Well not exactly. She she left home about a year ago. I've been around. She left
00:28:02home. Then a couple of months ago she wrote to me and I was foolish. I was
00:28:07still angry with her. I I tore the letter up and and now I'd like to contact her
00:28:11again and make it up to her. Well you think she might have stayed here? Well
00:28:15the address was somewhere in this area. I remember that. It was a rooming house.
00:28:20Nice place. She said over and over in her letter how marvelous it was. Marvelous?
00:28:29She said it was marvelous. Yes. Maybe she did stay here. Before me I haven't been
00:28:38here very long. There's someone else I can ask.
00:28:45Colonel Wright.
00:28:49Colonel Wright.
00:28:56I guess he's in the bath. Listen why don't you leave the picture with me and I'll
00:29:01ask Mrs. Oxy about it tonight. Well that's very kind of you. You can reach me at
00:29:06this number. My name's Thurston by the way. Harold Thurston.
00:29:27Mrs. Oxy. Yes my dear. Could you come in just a minute please?
00:29:37Mrs. Oxy a man came by here this morning. You weren't home. Oh well no matter. As
00:29:44you know we have no more rooms vacant at the moment. His name was Thurston. Oh yes?
00:29:50Well he was looking for his daughter. He thought she might have stayed here.
00:29:54Thurston? No I don't think so. Well he left a picture of her. Oh such a pretty
00:30:02girl. She stayed here then? Of course not. Such a pretty girl. If she had I should
00:30:09have remembered.
00:30:25You know since you told me about peeping Jonathan I don't feel safe in
00:30:29that bathroom anymore. I don't mind kids getting sex education early but I do
00:30:35object to being in the textbook. Who's that? A girl Mrs. Oxy says never stayed
00:30:40here. I've just shown her to him. She denies ever having seen her. Denies? Now
00:30:45what bee has crawled into your bonnet? What do you see hanging around that
00:30:50girl's neck? It's a locket or a pendant of some kind. Right. This pendant?
00:30:56Could be. It's too small to tell. What about this?
00:31:03Julie we always thought that was some kind of joke. What if it wasn't? You're not
00:31:07gonna start all that over again are you? Have you noticed that none of the other
00:31:13tenants ever get any mail? Nobody but us. Have you ever seen any of them go out?
00:31:18I mean actually go out into the cold light of day. Of course they go out. When?
00:31:22Name me one occasion. I don't recall exactly but they have to go out don't they?
00:31:26And marvelous and the man upstairs that we never see. I'm tired of it. I'm going to bed.
00:31:53Jillian. What? There's something else. What? This.
00:32:11That's Mr. C leaving his debt at last.
00:32:23The door's locked or something. Oh it can't be. I can't get it open.
00:32:30Oh!
00:32:49Look the door must have stuck. Why don't we just forget it? I gotta get some sleep.
00:33:00Jillian?
00:33:26Jillian?
00:33:31Jillian?
00:33:35Jillian?
00:34:00Jillian?
00:34:02Jillian?
00:34:28Jillian?
00:34:33Jillian? Jillian what is it? What is it?
00:34:42What's up? She been walking in her sleep? Yeah I guess so.
00:34:47Can't be nasty waking them when they're sleepwalking. Better get her back to bed.
00:34:51Come on. Sorry.
00:34:53She looks alright. Better keep the door locked though. Or put her shoes close to hand.
00:35:03Yeah. Thanks. Don't mention it. After all what are, what are neighbors for?
00:35:12Do you know her? Do you know her? No.
00:35:23Pretty though. Very pretty.
00:35:42I know Mrs. Oxley was lying. Thank you.
00:35:48I know Elgar was lying too. I'm sure he recognized your daughter.
00:35:52But why would he lie? That's something for the police to find out.
00:35:56Not until I've seen this Oxy woman. I must find out the truth from her first.
00:36:00Oh I'm sure the police could find out. I've already seen them weeks ago.
00:36:03They have Sally listed as a missing person.
00:36:06They told me nearly a thousand young girls go missing every year. Did you know that?
00:36:10I don't see what that has to do with... Nearly a thousand.
00:36:13And most of them disappear voluntarily because they want to. Because they're in trouble.
00:36:18Yes. The oldest kind of trouble a girl can get into.
00:36:22They disappear and discreetly have their baby or they're bought it in some back room somewhere.
00:36:29Usually with the help of an older woman. A woman who specializes in that sort of thing.
00:36:35Mrs. Oxley. Well it seems likely doesn't it?
00:36:39It would explain why she doesn't want to admit Sally ever stayed at the house.
00:36:45I must see Mrs. Oxley and face her with it.
00:36:51Well thank you for all your help. I'll call you and let you know how I got on.
00:36:58Yeah please do.
00:37:00I must see Mrs. Oxley and face her with it. I'll call you and let you know how I got on.
00:37:05Yeah please do.
00:37:31Hello? Anyone home? Hello?
00:37:52Who is it? Is it Mrs. Oxley?
00:38:01Why don't you just face the fact that he's not home? He must have tried at least ten times tonight.
00:38:17Well he said he'd call.
00:38:19If he had anything to tell you. He hasn't.
00:38:30He hasn't?
00:39:01Ciao. See you tonight.
00:39:08Bye.
00:39:30Bye.
00:40:00That house is evil.
00:40:26And you need to get away from it.
00:40:28Now what do you say? This weekend eh? Get away, be with people, have some fun for a change.
00:40:33And then come back and look at the house with a cold clear eye.
00:40:37I can't leave Gillian.
00:40:39Well I'll invite her too.
00:40:41I don't think she could go. She's got an exam coming up.
00:40:44Okay so she stays behind. Well what difference does it make?
00:40:47I'll leave her alone in that house Gary. Don't you understand that?
00:40:50Chrissie! If you examine that last remark you'll have to admit it's a pretty foolish one.
00:40:56We could make an early start tomorrow morning. I'll call for you at nine.
00:41:00Look I'm not taking no for an answer Chrissie. I'll call for you at nine and you'll be ready won't you?
00:41:05I guess so.
00:41:07That's better.
00:41:08I think it's a great idea. Get you out of yourself. Out of this cloud you're under.
00:41:14What time's he coming?
00:41:16About half an hour.
00:41:26Gillian are you sure you're gonna be alright?
00:41:29Oh don't start all that again. Here. I'm not a child you know.
00:41:33I know but listen it's just for tonight. I'll be back tomorrow and if you need me for anything...
00:41:38Need you? What am I needed for?
00:41:41What do you think's gonna happen to me?
00:41:43Tell me. I wish there was a chance of something exciting happening.
00:41:46Listen if you don't want me to go I won't go.
00:41:48Look tell you what. I really want you to go.
00:41:51But if you... Chrissie!
00:41:53Alright alright I won't say anymore.
00:41:56Oh he's early.
00:41:58How do you know it's him?
00:42:02It's him.
00:42:23You'll wake up the whole house.
00:42:25Take Gabriel's trumpet to do that.
00:42:27Come on in. I'm just about ready.
00:42:33Who's this old boy?
00:42:35I don't know. Just painting.
00:42:37No he's part of the house.
00:42:39Why do you say that?
00:42:41No reason. Just feel he is that's all.
00:42:54Hi.
00:42:56Beautiful.
00:42:58Hey thanks.
00:42:59For what?
00:43:00Taking her away for a while.
00:43:01Hey sounds there you trust me.
00:43:03Well I do.
00:43:04About the worst thing you could say to a man.
00:43:06I'm ready.
00:43:07Fine.
00:43:15Mr. C.
00:43:16Who's he?
00:43:17The man upstairs.
00:43:18Oh the one with the long nose.
00:43:20What?
00:43:21He's always watching when I come to the house.
00:43:24Must be him.
00:43:25Someone peeping out of the top window.
00:43:27Have you seen him?
00:43:28I was aware of someone.
00:43:32You're leaving and you're going to have a fantastic time here.
00:43:35Here's your coat.
00:43:36Lovely. Yes.
00:43:37Ciao.
00:43:38I'll be fantastic. Bye love.
00:43:51Bye.
00:44:22Come in.
00:44:27Hello John.
00:44:28Hello. If I'd known I'd have brought a couple of shirts.
00:44:31The more the merrier.
00:44:33Slaving away? That's no way to spend a Saturday.
00:44:36Well I'm open to ideas.
00:44:38I'm sorry I'm late.
00:44:40I'm sorry.
00:44:41I'm sorry.
00:44:42I'm sorry.
00:44:43I'm sorry.
00:44:44I'm sorry.
00:44:45I'm sorry.
00:44:46I'm sorry.
00:44:47I'm sorry.
00:44:48I'm sorry.
00:44:49I'm sorry.
00:44:50Ideas.
00:44:52Doing this all on your own?
00:44:54No Chrissy to help?
00:44:56She's gone away for the weekend.
00:44:58Now that is too bad.
00:45:00I came to give you both an invitation.
00:45:02I'm having a little celebration later on.
00:45:04Just a drink or two.
00:45:06Too bad Chrissy will miss it.
00:45:08But I can count on you, can't I?
00:45:10Well I do have some studying to catch up on.
00:45:13An hour or so won't make much difference, will it?
00:45:16No. I guess not.
00:45:17I'd love to come what time?
00:45:19Oh, say two o'clock. What the French would call a soiree.
00:45:49Garage, you're going to send out a tow truck. It may take a while.
00:46:04Would you like a drink whilst we're waiting?
00:46:06Yeah, thank you.
00:46:19Oh, yeah.
00:46:45Gillian, do come in.
00:46:50You look marvellous, Gillian.
00:46:55Marvellous.
00:47:01We all here then?
00:47:03I shouldn't have left Gillian.
00:47:05I knew that's what was bothering you.
00:47:07Gary, she's alone there.
00:47:08Oh, sure, quite alone.
00:47:10With people living on every floor.
00:47:12Look, didn't we have an agreement?
00:47:14A quiet, relaxed weekend and not one word about that darned house.
00:47:19I'm sorry.
00:47:21Look, I want you to be happy.
00:47:23Not sorry.
00:47:25Nothing can happen to Gillian. She's safe amongst a house full of people.
00:47:39Oh, it is so nice to have all my dear friends together at once.
00:47:43A united body.
00:47:45Not quite.
00:47:47There's an absentee.
00:47:49Mr. C.
00:47:51Absentee, Mr. C.
00:47:57Poor man.
00:47:59Shouldn't he be here?
00:48:00I'm afraid he never leaves his room.
00:48:02Never.
00:48:06But we keep him in touch with the outside world.
00:48:08We do his living for him, don't we?
00:48:10Yes, I suppose we do.
00:48:12But you were right to remind us of him, my dear.
00:48:15We can't leave him out of our little celebration, can we?
00:48:18No point without him.
00:48:19Celebration? You haven't yet told me what we're celebrating.
00:48:23Why you, Gillian, you.
00:48:25Me?
00:48:26We really ought to have Mr. C. join in.
00:48:29At least send him up a drink.
00:48:30What a good idea.
00:48:32And Gillian shall take it to him.
00:48:34What?
00:48:35He'll like that. He likes a pretty girl.
00:48:38Oh, yes, he does like them pretty.
00:48:41He adores them.
00:48:42You won't mind taking something up to him, will you?
00:48:45Oh, no, I won't mind.
00:48:49Never thought I'd get a chance to see him.
00:48:51You were destined to see him, my dear.
00:48:53And today's the day.
00:48:55Marvellous.
00:48:56Marvellous.
00:48:57Marvellous.
00:48:58Marvellous.
00:48:59Marvellous.
00:49:01And I shall go now.
00:49:04Take this to Mr. C.
00:49:12They're going to tow the car in.
00:49:14It's not far, apparently.
00:49:16Better you wait here, don't you think?
00:49:18Better than standing round in the garage.
00:49:20I'll go with them and pick the car up as soon as it's fixed, OK?
00:49:23OK.
00:49:24I'll be as quick as I can.
00:49:33I'm sorry.
00:49:34I'm sorry.
00:49:35I'm sorry.
00:49:36I'm sorry.
00:49:37I'm sorry.
00:49:39Beer, please, Charlie.
00:49:41Make it quick after we're in town to pick up the old man.
00:49:56Excuse me.
00:49:57Did you say we're going into town?
00:49:59Yes.
00:50:00Could I hitch a ride with you?
00:50:02Sure, why not?
00:50:04I have to write a note.
00:50:05I'll just be a minute, all right?
00:50:08OK.
00:50:29Go on, Gillian.
00:50:31He's waiting.
00:50:37He's waiting.
00:51:08Had to go back.
00:51:13Gillian?
00:51:15Had to go back.
00:51:20Gillian?
00:51:44Gillian?
00:52:14Gillian?
00:52:44Gillian?
00:52:45Gillian?
00:53:14Gillian?
00:53:15Gillian?
00:53:17Gillian?
00:53:45Mr. Elgar?
00:53:49Mr. Elgar, is Gillian in there with you?
00:54:08Mrs. Oxey?
00:54:12Mrs. Oxey?
00:54:14Mrs. Oxey?
00:54:35Colonel Wright?
00:54:44Mrs. Oxley?
00:54:56Mrs. Oxley?
00:55:07♪
00:55:17♪
00:55:37♪
00:55:47♪
00:55:57♪
00:56:07♪
00:56:17♪
00:56:27♪
00:56:37♪
00:56:47♪
00:56:57♪
00:57:07♪
00:57:17♪
00:57:27♪
00:57:37♪
00:57:47♪
00:57:57♪
00:58:07♪
00:58:17♪
00:58:27♪
00:58:37♪
00:58:47Oh yes, you saw him. Spoke to him.
00:58:52But you saw what I wanted you to see.
00:58:55What I willed you to see.
00:58:59But he is dead. Really dead.
00:59:04Like Oxy, Elgar, the others.
00:59:08They are all long dead.
00:59:12And yet, they exist.
00:59:18This is a nightmare.
00:59:21A terrible nightmare.
00:59:23No, this is real.
00:59:26Everything about you is real.
00:59:28I am real.
00:59:31But there's a house here.
00:59:32Empty. Just a shell.
00:59:36It has no more substance than a spider's web.
00:59:43You have been the most difficult until now.
00:59:46Your will against mine.
00:59:48And you sense things.
00:59:50Sense them with an extraordinary perception.
00:59:54It was different once, this house.
00:59:56Very different.
00:59:58Coaches rattled to the door.
01:00:01Pretty women. Soiree.
01:00:05But that was long ago.
01:00:071852, to be precise.
01:00:11September.
01:00:131852.
01:00:16That was when I retired to this room.
01:00:20Yes, more than 100 years ago.
01:00:24Retired to this room?
01:00:26You?
01:00:27I.
01:00:29I am very old, you see.
01:00:32And clever.
01:00:35And time has been on my side.
01:00:38And I have made it so.
01:00:40Oxy and Elgar...
01:00:42You saw them because I wanted you to see them.
01:00:47Like Thurston just now.
01:00:49I willed him upon you.
01:00:55I told you I was clever.
01:00:57And I am the living proof of it. Living.
01:01:02Of course, there is good and evil in every man.
01:01:06There is good and evil in every man.
01:01:09But I am a Cartney.
01:01:11And you will find a Cartney involved in every black mass since the days of civilization.
01:01:16We Cartneys have been imbued with more than our share of evil.
01:01:22Good and evil.
01:01:25But good is such a poor, pious thing.
01:01:29Who could possibly survive on good alone?
01:01:33But evil...
01:01:36It is the stuff of life itself.
01:01:38It is vital, alive, immortal for those who have found the way.
01:01:43And I have found the way.
01:01:47Eternal life through the infinite power of evil.
01:01:52Through the rich black arts, the devil himself breathed upon my chilled cheek and gave me eternal life.
01:01:59I have embraced him and he me.
01:02:02I exist and will exist.
01:02:04Until that final trump when Satan emerges to claim his very own.
01:02:10No.
01:02:11Those people were real.
01:02:14I saw them. I knew them.
01:02:16And through them you knew me.
01:02:21Oh yes.
01:02:22They were real once.
01:02:24Each and every one of them lived under this roof, my roof.
01:02:28But they are gone now.
01:02:31And all that remains is what I choose shall remain.
01:02:37The darker side of their souls.
01:02:43Those vile, black, hidden things.
01:02:52These have become my inheritance.
01:02:58Noxie, Elgar, the Patricks.
01:03:02All long dead and yet they live on through me, through my imagination.
01:03:10And yours.
01:03:14Through my great hallucinatory powers they actually exist again.
01:03:21Not as ghosts, wraiths, but with substance.
01:03:28So that they become real, tangible.
01:03:34And they actually exist again through me.
01:03:40Marvellous.
01:03:44Marvellous.
01:03:47In the beginning was...
01:03:51The word.
01:03:54In the beginning was Lucifer.
01:03:58Beelzebub.
01:04:00Old Nick himself.
01:04:04And in the end shall be old Nick and me, the last of the Cartneys.
01:04:11And in the end shall be old Nick and me, the last of the Cartneys.
01:04:15My influence shall endure forever.
01:04:20I am very old.
01:04:25And yet I remain young.
01:04:31Can't you guess my secret?
01:04:33I steal from others. I steal the life of others.
01:04:36You must not mind too much, my dear.
01:04:38I am gone, you see, through me.
01:04:45Oh, no.
01:05:08Oh, no.
01:05:27You will live on, I swear it.
01:05:31Run!
01:05:39Run!
01:05:50You can't destroy me.
01:05:57You will live on.
01:06:03Live on.
01:06:09Oh, no.
01:06:23Well, that makes nine so far.
01:06:25We haven't even started looking yet.
01:06:28It's over.
01:06:30It's all over.
01:06:32Chrissie.
01:06:34All that nonsense about him living on.
01:06:37Forget it. It's finished.
01:06:40Cartney can't touch you anymore.
01:06:45That's marvellous.
01:06:50Marvellous.
01:07:07Marvellous.
