Has the patriarch of a turn-of-the-century New England family actually returned from the dead to start murdering his relatives, one by one? Believe me, by the time you get to the end of this low-voltage horror film, you won't really care anymore. Of interest only as the film debut of Roy Scheider, as well as the second movie appearance by "Carnival of Souls" star Candace Hilligoss.

Trivia
Film debut of Roy Scheider

Goofs
Towards the end of the movie, the caretaker named Seth was stabbed in the throat and put into a coffin. However, when the coffin is opened, there is the face of a different actor with the throat wound. Apparently, the actor portraying Seth refused to lie in a coffin.

Quotes
Philip Sinclair: The body is a long, insatiable tube - in need of drink and relaxation.

Alternate versions
Some prints of the film are edited to remove the partial nudity during the bathtub murder sequence, resulting in an obvious audio-visual jump cut.
