Hardly a classic, but you're right: it's definitely creepy and it's got a very strong cast...including, I believe, a young John Travolta in his first screen role! J.M.

Have you seen it, Mr D? <br /><br />It's quite an odd film, which manages to be both corny and genuinely creepy and unsettling at times. <br /><br />Worth checking out, even if it's just for the stellar cast.
