As a kid I recall seeing this horror movie on tv that I vaguely remember. I really only remember the last scene in detail. Can any of you horror buffs help me identify this? I believe its from the 70s (possibly 60s?):

A couple and their little boy move into this house. The mother cares for this old woman who lives in the attic, who is never seen by anyone else. In the end, the family is leaving this house. The mother runs back inside to the old lady. The house/roof begins to crumble down on the little boy's face. He runs in, after his mother, only to discover that there really is no old woman at all, but that his psycho mother is sitting there all dressed up as one in a rocking chair.

Can anyone help me out?

I know I'm not in a small town, but there is only one rental store that still has these old ones or a lot of the foreign films.

It is on TV still every now and then, or there is always downloading if you can or ordering. I can't download so I'm screwed there! Bloodrayne had it at one time......maybe she could get it for you.

It came out after Psycho, and is really nothing like Psycho except for the mother idea.......but that is different too. Look it up on the web, there is probably a write up on it! :)
