Review of Fright (1971) by Ian L — 12 Aug 2012
Susan George is Amanda, a shapely babysitter whom a couple (Honor Blackman, George Cole) hire to watch their three-year-old son. What Amanda doesn't know is that the child's birth father is a murderous nut who just escaped from a mental institution. Sounds like she may earn a generous tip before the night is through.
The plot of "Fright" ("There's a killer in the house!") couldn't be more tired, but it's a well-made, well-acted film for what it is, and the script does an admirable job of finding excuses for George to run around with her sweater unbuttoned.
