A superb and very frightening film at times, watch this one at night, especially if you live out in the country, in a setting such as that of the house! Beautiful old manor, well filmed piece, some humorous moments but more a masterpiece of supernatural horror than a comedy by far. Very difficult to find for sale,and when one does it is often at a very high price.A weird essence of heaven and hell is used throughout the film, is the main character delusional,or is there really something amiss? Many will remember Finney from 'The singing detective' and this piece shows once again his own underrated acting abilities.Highly recommended.

Kingsley Amis, a charter member of the English 'Angry Young Men' club of post World War II writers, wrote a marvelous book containing equal parts of horror and humour.'The Green Man' is an adequite translation of Amis's literary masterpiece to the screen; alas, in this case, the television screen.Albert Finney delivers a preformance to match the character Amis created to present the story of a centuries-old child molester who still inhabits the precincts of the home in which he lived.The production is English, hence, superior. If this one doesn't stick with you...check your pulse. -30-

This is one of those films that is so laid back and realistic that it TRULY scares the crap out of you! The fact that you won't even see the scary bits coming is what sets this movie above and beyond many more obviously scary pictures. And, if you are like me, you will often casually think about some of the scenes in this film, because they are quiet profound! Be prepared to be creeped out by the Green Man!

It has it all. Acting, plot and a good cast. I loved every moment of the movie. I refuse to tell you the plot because there are many in this movie which all join together.
