Scary terror movie with chills , eerie intrigue , nudism , twisted suspense and violent events with shocking scenes . It is far better written and played than you might expect , if the first part with the girls and their boyfriends results to be slow-moving as well as boring, lacking exposition, but when appears the creepy , psychopatic trio living apart from them : Sheila Keith, Barbara Markham and Patrick Barr things get better . It packs a simple and basic formula , with neither deep exploration of characters , no analysis of environment or circumstances , but killings , punishment and tortures without much sense. With "Frightmare" following on "House of Whipcord" , David McGillivray's scriptwriting is undoubtedly having a marked effect on Peter Walker's pictures . Main and support cast provide decent interpretations . Barbara Markham gives a nice acting as the ruthless ruler as well as her faithfully warden Sheila Keith who has the scary habit of going after victims and hanging them , while Patrick Barr as nutty Justice Desmond Bailey is nice. The attractive youngsters Ann Michelle , Penny Irving, Ray Brooks are acceptable and brief apparance from a very young Celia Imrie.
This gory picture was professional and creepily directed by Peter Walker . He was an expert on Terror movies , though he also made other genres and TV series . As Peter Walter directed the following ones : " House of the long shadows , Home before Midnight , The Comeback , Schizo , House of Mortal Sin, House of Whipcord , Frightmare , Tiffany Jones" . Most his films used to settle for routine or run-of-the-mill storylines, however , nowadays teem with demonic life and made in exploitation style . Peter Waker's "Nightmare" filmmaking is on another level , altogether from " Cool it Carol ¡" or "The Flesh and Blood Show" . Rating : 5.5/10 . Acceptable and passable though it tends to leave a highly unpleasant aftertaste .
