THE MAN WHO HAUNTED HIMSELF and THE NIGHTCOMERS - 4K UHD Special Editions from StudioCanal

StudioCanal announces a pair of worldwide 4K UHD debuts for star-studded psychological thrillers joining their celebrated Cult Classics range. THE MAN WHO HAUNTED HIMSELF starring Roger Moore, and Marlon Brando's THE NIGHTCOMERS. Both titles will be available on 4K UHD, Blu-ray, and Digital from Monday 27th April. Both the 4K UHD and Blu-ray include four art cards.

THE MAN WHO HAUNTED HIMSELF

Expertly directed by Ealing veteran Basil Dearden (The Blue Lamp), THE MAN WHO HAUNTED HIMSELF features Roger Moore as you’ve never seen him before, giving a powerful performance as a businessman whose existence is reshaped by malevolent forces. 

It’s arguably Moore’s greatest non-Bond role (and his personal favourite) - and it’s a double treat for Moore fans, with the actor playing both a conservative businessman and his mysterious doppelganger. Described by Variety as a ‘tense riddle’, THE MAN WHO HAUNTED HIMSELF keeps the viewer on the edge of their seat as they try to second guess Moore’s peculiar fate. Overlooked by audiences when it was released in 1970, the film is now regarded as a cult gem, with a central role that sees Moore not just shaken and stirred but scared out of his wits.

SYNOPSIS: 
Harold Pelham (Roger Moore), a partner in a large electronics firm, finds himself in bewildering circumstances after recovering from a near-fatal car accident. What causes him to renounce his high business principles? Why do friends and colleagues repeatedly sight him in places he has never been? And why does Julie, an attractive girl he has seen only once, claim such an intimate relationship with him? Does Pelham really have a doppelgänger – or is he losing his mind?

THE NIGHTCOMERS

Marlon Brando's intense performance dominates this atmospheric, sexually charged feature from a golden age of British horror, directed by the legendary Michael Winner (Death Wish). The film, also starring  Stephanie Beacham (Schizo), sketches a prequel to Henry James' classic Gothic novella The Turn of the Screw, with Brando in typically compelling form as the servant whose disturbing, magnetic presence exerts a corrupting hold over the occupants of a country estate.  

Described by acclaimed critic Rex Reed as “gripping, spine-tingling and terrific” and “eerily and effectively told” by The Sunday Express, THE NIGHTCOMERS is dripping with atmosphere and laden with dread, and features steamy scenes between Brando and Beacham that is bound to bring Henry James purists out in a cold sweat. 

Fans of Jack Cardiff’s The Turn of the Screw adaption The Innocents and Nicole Kidman’s creepy classic The Others shouldn’t miss this: one of Winner’s most fascinating and sheerly enjoyable films.

SYNOPSIS: 
Following the death of their parents, Flora and Miles are left in the care of repressed governess Miss Jessel, and housekeeper Mrs Grose. But it is Brando’s Peter Quint, the malevolent servant, who truly rules the household. Miss Jessel, equally repulsed and fascinated by Quint, is drawn into a secret sado-masochistic affair with him, while Flora and Miles are increasingly in his thrall...
