A thriller with a scene so unforgettably horrible (particularly if you're a fan of rabbits) that it spawned a new term - the bunny boiler. Michael Douglas is the errant husband who can't resist what he thinks will be a straightforward fling with an alluring Glenn Close. Little does he know that, before long, good old Glenn will have broken into his house and make a tasty stew out of the family's pet bunny rabbit! more »

63 - Armchair Thriller (1978)
TV Programmes
Armchair Theatre was ITV's landmark drama anthology series which went out on Sunday night in the Seventies and was a huge success. Sometimes it changed its format and called itself Armchair Thriller when it grouped together mystery and thriller plays. Quiet As A Nun spawned the Jemima Shore Investigates series, the scariest moment of the episode occurring when journalist Jemima Shore climbs up some steps into an old attic and finds a faceless nun is rocking in her chair.



From the master of European horror Dario Argento comes a horrifying tale of sorcery, murder and dying waifs in ballet shoes. The first film of his never complete Three Mothers Trilogy, Suspiria is the story of young American dancer Jessica Harper who travels to Europe to enrol at a famous ballet school. She soon discovers that the school is merely a façade concealing a dark world of sinister witchcraft and that a murderer is on the loose. A horror classic full of grand sets, intense visual imagery and death portrayed with aesthetic abandon. more »
