The Legacy | comment |
A 1978 British-American horror film directed by Richard Marquand (Star Wars: Return of the Jedi) and starring Katharine Ross and Sam Elliott.Maggie Walsh (Ross) and her boyfriend Pete Danner (Elliott) are American architects who travel to England after being contracted for a job there. Shortly after their arrival, they are riding in the countryside when their motorcycle hits the limousine of one Jason Mountolive (John Standing). He invites the couple to his mansion for the duration of their ride's repairs. Staying there, it quickly becomes apparent that their encounter was no coincidence, as odd, deadly accidents start befalling Mountolive's other arriving guests.Roger Daltrey, lead singer for The Who, appears in the supporting cast as does Charles Gray. | |
