I saw this ghost movie in 1991 or 1992 on TV. It was color. Unfortunately, i don't remember too much of that movie excepting the fact that the action took place in a seaside castle/mansion which belonged, i think, to a wealthy family. In the main saloon of the castle it was a big painting on the front wall portraying a misterious woman who was moving her eyes (scary!), looking through the dining room of that castle. The woman in the painting had a HUGE WHITE SEA-SHELL which was covering one of her breasts. It was night and outside the castle was a big storm (with thunders and lightnings). I also remember that in the above mentioned saloon (the main room of the castle) there were several persons, gathered in a spiritism meeting (seance) or something like this. My father remembers a strong ressemblance between the woman in the painting who was dead (she committed suicide jumping from a cliff into the sea) and a woman who was present in that saloon/dining room. He also remembers the woman in the painting wearing a white robe and walking along the seashore. The painting had green shades/colours through it. I believe the movie was made in the 80's or early 90's.
I think the woman's name was Elisabeth, although i am not 100% sure.
Please, can somebody help me with the title of this movie?

Sounds like shades of Rebecca...although the story sounds very familiar.
I am sure this will come to me later.

The woman in white walking along the seashore part reminds of "Lady in White" but that's about the only part that resembles it.

Is it possible to be one of these two movies?
"The Haunted" (1984) starring Ariauna Albright and "Haunted" (1984) (TV) starring Brooke Adams, Ari Meyers and directed by Michael Roemer. Unfortunately, imdb.com has very few info regarding these two movies.
Has anybody here seen them??

Isn't there a sequence of Necronomicon that has an image like that?

I don't know. I am just downloading the movie to see if there is a scene like that.

I didn't see a scene like that in H.P. Lovecraft's "Necronomicon" (1993).

Somebody on Ebay forums suggested "Rebecca" (1979) (TV).

You are right, Despare, but at that time i only knew about the old version of "Rebecca" - from 1940 - which couldn't be my movie since it was B & W.
Sorry for my atittude.....
