The Innocents.

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0055018/

The Innocents is a 1961 British horror film based on the novella The Turn of the Screw by Henry James. The title of the film was taken from William Archibald’s stage adaptation of James’ novella. Directed and produced by Jack Clayton, it stars Deborah Kerr, Michael Redgrave and Megs Jenkins. Falling within the subgenre of psychological horror, the film achieves its effects through lighting, music, and direction rather than gore and conventional shocks. Its distinctive atmosphere owes much to cinematographer Freddie Francis, who employed deep focus in many scenes, as well as bold, minimal lighting. It was filmed on location at the gothic mansion of Sheffield Park in East Sussex. The film includes the first role in cinema for child actor Pamela Franklin.

“God Told Me To” 1976 low budget film about random murders in NYC. It was an unexpected second feature that blew me away, I couldn’t sleep well for days. It was much scarier than the Exorcist or Omen. It’s available on Netflix. I watched it again thirty years later and it still sent chills down my spine. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0075930/
