Wealthy Dominique Ballard (Jean Simmons; Spartacus) lives with her husband David (Cliff Robertson; Obsession, Man on a Swing) in Dominique's giant English estate. Emotionally fragile, Dominique is harassed, tormented, and eventually driven mad by David until one night she hangs herself, resulting in her entire fortune being left to her husband. But what at first seems like a clever inheritance scheme soon becomes a waking nightmare for David as Dominique's spirit is not at rest and has instead risen from the grave to haunt him and avenge her death. But is the evil presence that appears to be seeking vengeance from the afterlife actually David's dearly departed wife or is someone else attempting their own elaborate and deadly hoax?

A suspenseful supernatural thriller from Michael Anderson (Logan's Run), DOMINIQUE (also known as Dominique is Dead) co-stars Jenny Agutter (Walkabout) and Judy Geeson (10 Rillington Place). Sumptuously photographed by Oscar winner Ted Moore (A Man For All Seasons, Goldfinger), Vinegar Syndrome brings DOMINIQUE to Blu-ray for the first time in an all new 2k restoration.

Cozy autumn viewing than all-out frightfest

"A gaslighting husband, a looming inheritance, and a string of spooky hauntings set the stage for this glossy-meets-TV-movie thriller. Cliff Robertson, Jean Simmons, Jenny Agutter, Simon Ward, Michael Jayston, and Ron Moody headline an all-star cast of performances, and while the film's quality never fully catches fire, it has enough foggy nights, ghostly pianos, and eerie visions to keep things enjoyably creepy. Robertson’s slow unraveling as he is haunted by his supposedly dead wife and a gravestone with his own name on it builds to a satisfying finale. Technically a Halloween movie thanks to a will-reading set for October 31st, it is more cozy autumn viewing than all-out frightfest."

— Mitchell C. (4/5)

Good 70s ghost story

— Stephen H. (4/5)

I thought this was Diabolique

— Stephen S. (4/5)
