Saxon Logan directs this 1980s British horror. When a rich couple (Nikolas Grace and Joanna David) journey to the home of brother and sister Alex and Marion Britain (Bill Douglas and Heather Page) for dinner, they end up clashing with their hosts over their contrasting social and moral views. A destructive storm ruins their dinner plans so instead they go out to a restaurant where they meet the establishment's strange owner (Fulton MacKay) and his employee (Michael Medwin). As the foursome continue to argue over their differences, the tension builds and the night takes a blood-spattered turn for the worst.

Every year, barrister Alan McKim (John Gregson) and wife Wendy (Dinah Sheridan) compete against Alan's friend (and Wendy's former beau), Ambrose Claverhouse (Kenneth More), in the London to Brighton vintage car race. This time round, however, Alan's 1904 roadster, 'Genevieve', breaks down on route. Angered by Ambrose's jokes at the expense of his beloved car, Alan bets his rival that he can beat him on the return journey to London - and the race is on! Larry Adler's harmonica score was nominated for an Oscar. Also included is a 'making of' documentary.
Margaret Rutherford and Robert Morley star in this British comedy. The Drossmouth repertory company are having enough trouble preparing for their production of the poorly-written melodrama 'Tarnished Gold' when the play's indomitable author Catherine Beckwith (Rutherford) arrives. She soon locks horns with the play's producer Harry Blacker (Morley), a confrontation which quickly escalates into out-and-out war.
Allegorical drama from director Lindsay Anderson in which a group of non-conformist students lead a revolt against their oppressive masters at an English private school. Parallels are drawn in the film between the bullying, inflexible and snobbish approach of the schoolmasters to their pupils, led by the rebellious Mick Travis (Malcolm McDowell), and the dysfunction and injustice of the British class system at large. As Mick and his gang of cohorts indulge in acts of petty disobedience, such as heading into town to try and seduce a local waitress, the school's acts of retribution, led by Rowntree (Robert Swann), become increasingly cruel and malicious. Finally, the students are provoked into open rebellion, the bloody nature of which shocked a number of commentators at the time and led to claims that the film aimed to provoke a violent uprising in society as a whole.
James Mason stars in this family drama set in Bolton in the late 1960s. Love and humour prevail as strict working class father Rafe Crompton (Mason) and his wife Daisy (Diana Coupland) struggle to cope with the ups and downs of bringing up their four children - Hilda (Susan George), Harold (Rodney Bewes), Florence (Hannah Gordon) and Wilfred (Len Jones) - against the backdrop of a rapidly changing society.
This was the second 'Carry On' film, and a hit in the United States. The patients in a men's hospital ward decide to revolt against the staff, as led by the indomitable Matron (Hattie Jacques). Troublesome patients include Kenneth Williams, Leslie Phillips, Kenneth Connor and Charles Hawtrey. Producer Peter Rogers was offered a five-movie deal on the strength of this film's success.
World War II submarine drama chronicling British efforts to destroy the German battleship 'Tirpitz' in a Norwegian fjord. John Mills leads a stalwart British cast in this documentary-style film.
