This movie creeped me out when I first saw it years ago.
Also, make it a triple feature and add in Never Take Sweets from a Stranger, which really nails the part shown here about how an entire town can cover up a creeps crimes.

I saw that for the first time last year. That was also the first time I’ve ever truly been unnerved by a Hammer film. You can cut the tension in it with a knife.
I say this as someone who truly loves Hammer, it's probably their highest quality movie. I made a couple of friends watch it last year and one of them got visibly angry. It is effective and real in a way you don't really associate with Hammer. I mean, I love Cushing as Dr. Frankenstein but this is a whole different beast.

Ooh. Haven't seen that one. Will add it to the list.
