I have this on VHS with the American title The House That Vanished-a much better title than its original British title, for this is much more of a house that vanished type movie than a crude scream...AND DIE! type (although a grizzly murder does takes place). I was hoping the DVD version would have a sharper image but there is not much difference. Its a slightly fuzzy picture-perhaps a tad better than the videotape. The film itself-the story, the characters and the actors make for a nice little tale of suspense. But for me, what really makes this film memorable is the early 1970s time period and the British setting. The leading lady Andrea Allan is very attractive and the atmosphere throughout the movie very well done. With a new updated transfer-or remastered-a new print struck from the negative/is that how you say it?... this would be a quite respectable and enjoyable flick.
