This movie is old - and the story holds up just fine. The disc quality I watched was not great; it was fuzzy and the sound quality was poor, and at times downright bad. There were no subtitles to help with the situation either. The movie was directed by
Edgar Ulmer, known for putting together movies on the cheap, shooting quickly with little known actors.
Nevertheless, the story is good; a privileged young man has an ominous dream predicting a dark presence preying on his mother in particular and his family in general. The dream upsets him greatly, and he breaks off his vacation to go home, where he finds his dream is coming true. His mother and sister are charmed by a handsome stranger courting his widowed mother. The young man puts himself in danger to investigate who the stranger really is.
I recommend this, but maybe wait until a better version is available. This was a bit tough to hear.
