Mord nach Maß (1972)
Trotz des Widerstands ihrer Familie heiratet die schwerreiche Amerikanerin Ellie (Ex-Kinderstar Hayley Mills) ihren Chauffeur Michael (Hywell Bennett). Auch die Warnungen über ihre angeblich verfluchte Traumvilla schlagen die jungen Eheleute in den Wind - bis Ellie von einem Reitausflug nicht mehr zurückkehrt. Eng am Roman und modernisiert erlebt der Zuschauer die spannende Geschichte eines frisch vermählten Ehepaares aus verschiedenen sozialen Schichten in seinem auf dem Land gelegenen Traumhauses. Dort geschehen seltsame Dinge, auch der Tod hält Einzug. Was steckt hinter all diesen Ereignissen?
