Woman of Straw (1964) - A little known Hitchcockian thriller featuring Sean Connery, Ralph Richardson and Gina Lollobrigida. Adapted from a book by French writer Catherine Arley. I remember watching this on TV as a kid. Now it's finally available on blu ray.

This may be a bit of a liberty since it's a TV film but Black Noon has always stuck with me. Not a top notch cast but certainly worthy. During the 70's devil worship phase. Roy Thinnes Yvette Mimieux Ray Milland Gloria Grahame Henry Silva Hank Worden TV movies are fine, Opus. Welcome. It’s funny. I remember Roy Thinnes in another devil worship TV movie named SATAN’S SCHOOL FOR GIRLS. The 1970’s were the Golden Age of TV movies and, in my opinion, nobody did it better than the ABC Network. There are so many of them that I only saw once but have never forgotten. Thank you for the welcome. I think you're right about ABC. So many eco-horror TV movies from that time. killer bees, spiders, unseen super natural forces. I think William Shatner was in a couple of them, too. One where they were on an airplane and some supernatural thing aboard. I think Roy Thinnes was in that too! Seems he found his calling with these movies.

A TV-movie from the early 1970 that I remembered the plot and how it sadly ended, but I couldn't figure out were it came from and who played the lead. An old man sees a friend in a shop, then his friend get's murdered, something the old man witnessed, but nobody believes him, except the murderer. I stumbled upon the answer a few years ago, The Old Man Who Cried Wolf 1970, and the old man was played by legendary Edward G. Robinson. One of the reasons I couldn't find it was because I thought it was British, and the old man was played by Noel Purcell or some other old beared actor.
