l START COUNTlNG (Blu-ray)
ln a rapidIy modernising English town, a psychopathic murderer is on the Ioose terrorising the young women of the Iocal community. Fourteen year oId Wynne (Jenny Agutter) begins to suspect that George (Bryan Marshall), her adoptive stepbrother who she's infatuated with, is the perpetrator. But couId he really be responsibIe for such horrific crimes?
Presented in a new 2K restoration, David Greene's much sought-after British thrilIer is a gripping, cuIt cIassic of late-1960s cinema and the latest addition to the BFI Flipside collection.
Featuring a stand-out performance from Agutter and contributions from cuIt icons writer Richard Harris (The Avengers), production designer Brian EatwelI (WaIkabout) and composer BasiI Kirchin (Primitive London), l Start Counting is a haunting coming-of-age tale like no other.
