Hello all.
I was reminiscing today about movies that used to scare me witless as a kid; one of them was Trilogy of Terror, which I found plenty of information on (that one still gives me the creeps when I think about it) and another one which I just can't put a name to.
I'm not sure if this movie I'm trying to find the name of was a made for TV or cinema/theater release in its day or not, so please excuse me if this is in the wrong area.
The movie, from memory, goes like this:
A family moves into an old house they've just purchased. While the husband is away at work, the wife begins a clean up of the place and hears noises coming from a grate/covering. There are voices which are beckoning her to open the grate or something to that effect.
The husband thinks she is just being silly for a little while but he eventually breaks away the opening and it reveals a deep well. He puts a padlock on the grate and consoles her that there's nothing down there, she's just stressed out etc.
While he's back at work she continues to hear these noises and starts going off her rocker and freaking out.
Anyhow I'm a bit vague on the details but in the end she ends up being enticed to open the grate and is whisked away into the underworld.
Well it's not much to go on but hopefully someone can recognise it and help me with the name of the movie. I watched it as a young lad and it always gave me the creeps, dying to see it again just for the memories. I don't have a clue who the actors were in it, sorry for the lack of information.
Hope you can help.
Cheers
