Alberto Cavalcanti / Michael Redgrave - Dead Of Night
When Walter Craig (Mervyn Johns) visits a country house, he finds himself trapped in his recurring nightmare that involves the manor's guests sharing their experiences with the supernatural. With each bizarre tale told, whether it be about a haunted mirror or a ventriloquist tormented by his dummy, Craig hurtles closer and closer to the nightmare's end, where he knows something awful will happen. A portmanteau work from four of Ealing Studios' best directors and starring Michael Redgrave, Googie Withers and Mervyn Johns, Dead of Night is rightly held up as one of the finest horror films ever made.
