Description:
Set in 1920s England, the film follows a former clergyman (Peter Cushing) as he faces a terrible problem: containing his cannibalistic son and shielding the world from the horrors within their home. The period setting builds an unsettling atmosphere while the father fights to maintain order amidst growing darkness. The story explores moral decline, strained family ties, and the burden of guilt and hidden sins that threaten to destroy them. As the clergyman desperately tries to confine his son to the attic, a chilling psychological drama unfolds. The film questions the limits of parental love and responsibility, and shows the tragic consequences of concealed evil.
