Pleasant diversion from the usual grim October horror fare. This light comedy starring Tom Poston is set in an old English mansion. A family of eccentrics are living there to fulfill an inheritance, but are killed off one by one. Poston is the outsider who is trapped overnight in a rain storm and must try to stay alive. The plot revolves around the mystery of the killer and the eccentricities of the family. Fenella Fielding is wonderful as Morgana Femm.
