Katherine Ross and Sam Elliot are two Americans who go to England for a little vacation end up getting in a car wreck and stay at a mansion. Soon other guests arrive and one by one all the guests begin dying in very unusual ways. One woman is stuck underneath a pool by an invisible force, one gets hit by glass when her mirror explodes and so on, till only a few are left. It turns out someone is killing everyone so they can have the power over the mansion. Very unusual movie and eerie but everyone plays it pretty good. cheesy opening song though
