Night Visitor
Set against a brooding Scandinavian winter landscape, this ingenious Gothic thriller unfolds as Salem (Max Von Sydow) escapes from a maximum security insane asylum. Dressed only in shorts and shoes, he braves the frozen countryside to seek revenge against his own family, who had him committed two years earlier for a brutal ax murder that he didn't commit...or did he? Director Laslo Benedek, with a cast of major international stars and a haunting musical score by Academy Award winner, Henry Mancini, creates an intense, suspenseful thriller that bulids to a surprise climax in the tradition of vintage Hitchcock.
