The Anniversary (1968)
[rating=4]
UK: 95 min • Hammer • DVD
Bette Davis plays matriarch Mrs Taggart and plays a rough game to keep her sons away from the guiding influence of other women.
PermalinkLike all hag films, the women get the strongest roles – Sheila Hancock and Elaine Taylor measure up well, although this is Bette’s film and she relishes the role, cackling with witchy glee at the outrageous things that she gets to do.
