the film is only about 45mins long.
Can anyone please tell me what it is called? Where i can get a copy etc???
Many thanks,

Strangely enough, two anthology films each have a segment based on the same story.
TRILOGY OF
TERROR II
(1996) (TV)
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0117966/
Story 2/ "Bobby"
The plot revolves on a deeply saddened mother reverting to black magic to revive her recently deceased son who fell out of his bedroom widow and drowned in the ocean. It works, but Bobby returns as an aggressive and foul-mouthed psycho with a desire to send his own mother to hell.
DEAD OF NIGHT
(1977) (TV)
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0075917/
Story 3/ "Bobby" - (30 minutes)
A lady is staying alone in a beach house, while her husband is on a business trip. So during one stormy night she decides to perform a magic ritual to hopefully bring back her dead son who accidentally drowned. Nothing happens for a while, but then she hears a knock on the door and there sits a shivering and soaking-wet Bobby.
Both films directed by Dan Curtis, story by Richard Matheson.
Dead of Night is on DVD
Trilogy of Terror II not yet, except DVD-R's of the VHS, sometimes with TOT.
