Jenny (Susan Penhaligon) visits the local Catholic church to have her confession is heard by the immoral Father Meldrum (Anthony Sharp), who is perversely interested in her sex life. Rushing to escape his prying, she drops her apartment keys which Meldrum uses to invade her house and blackmail her by threatening to publish her recorded confession. Father Meldrum is looked after by his sinister housekeeper, Miss Brabazon (Sheila Keith) and when Jenny s boyfriend Terry confronts Meldrum, he is attacked with incense and buried alive in the churchyard. Father Meldrum s standing in the community means that no one will suspect or accuse a man of the cloth; but in the meantime more people begin to die in mysterious ways through poisoned communion water and strangulation by rosary beads... This horror tour-de-force is one of Pete Walker s great shockers and has a great supporting cast including Stephanie Beecham, Bill Kerr, Hilda Barry and Andrew Sachs.
