“Never try to deceive two women!”

ThrillerDrama

Struggling artist Geoffrey Carroll meets Sally while on holiday in the country. A romance develops, but he doesn't tell her he's already married. Suffering from mental illness, Geoffrey returns home where he paints an impression of his wife as the angel of death and then promptly poisons her. He marries Sally but after a while he finds a strange urge to paint her as the angel of death too and history seems about to repeat itself.

VIBE

A suffocating atmosphere of dread permeates this tale of an artist's dark obsessions. The tension builds with each brushstroke, hinting at a grim fate for those caught in his destructive gaze. It's a chilling descent into madness, beautifully rendered.
