When a middle-aged woman invites a strapping young stranger to move in, the arrival of her upper-crust brother will lead to a most unexpected triangle

THE NORTH AMERICAN BLU-RAY PREMIERE

From the legendary pen of Joe Orton - hailed by The Guardian as "the first rock star playwright" - comes the "sophisticated and devastating" (New York Magazine) film version of the tale that has shocked and delighted audiences for over half a century: When voracious middle-aged Kath (Beryl Reid of THE KILLING OF SISTER GEORGE) invites a strapping young stranger named Sloane (Peter McEnery of NEGATIVES) to move in, the arrival of her upper-crust brother Ed (Harry Andrews of THE RULING CLASS) will lead to a most unexpected triangle of lust, murder and pickled onions. Alan Webb (WOMEN IN LOVE) co-stars in this "sharp, wild and effervescent comedy" (Cinevue) adapted by BAFTA nominee Clive Exton (Jeeves & Wooster) and directed by Douglas Hickox (ZULU DAWN, THEATRE OF BLOOD), now scanned in 2K from the original camera negative with 4+ hours of new and archival Special Features.
