I did not see this film when it went on release nor can I ever remember seeing it on TV.So this was the first time I had seen this.Whilst no great classic it is still a very effective thriller.Gary Merrill plays a bought husband under the thumb of his rich domineering wife.A young niece returns and soon falls in love with Merrill.His wife has a crooked Secretary.Between the both of them they hatch a plot to murder her.However Merrill murders her before the planned time which complicates matters.He buries her in a shed.However when he and the niece spend time in the house they are haunted by the dead wife.There are a number of twists before everyone concerned are brought to justice.
