An American psychologist journeys to London to debunk a devil-worshipping cult. Based on a short story by seminal horror writer M. R. James and atmospherically directed as an occult noir by Jacques Tourneur, this is superior scare fare and will have audiences pointing in fear: “It’s in the trees! It’s coming!”
