Burnt Offerings TV Spot 1976

[Bladestar7]

First time I saw this wasinthe early 80's when i was a kid. My parents were watching it in their room. I came in just at the part when the chauffer came in Bette Davis' room. Scared the bejesus out of me!! Havent had a good night sleep since. The Chauffer was played by Actor: Anthony Davis. He was one of the henchmen in "High Plains Drifter". He was also in Unforgiven. He was the bartender that got shot when he shouldve armed himself.

1970s movies were usu. PG even w/gore galore (It's Alive, Jaws) or nudity (Airplane) that would be R today. Haven't seen this movie as an adult, but it was scary when I was in 8th grade. Even today, Watcher in the Woods is quite frightening (even seeing it during the day), and it scared me more in 9th grade when I first saw it!

[daughterofiran]

How can this movie be rated PG with that creepy chauffeur?

I'm reading comments by 30 something adults who say it scares the hell out of them

[GODDESSKARENBLACK]

[GODDESSKARENBLACK]

[notfarfromhome]

Burgess Meredith=The Sentinel

Both of these actors were in some really scary movies! Check them out!

oh man the first time i saw this when i was a kid back in the early 2000's this scared me so bad. i couldn't even sleep. of course that happened with alot of the classics, but this one really stuck out. the laughing hearse driver still gives me chills.

[typhon3808]

@parnd No offense, but are you 10 years old or something? It's only 2011. LOL

[parnd]

@typhon3808 no actually im 20

[freqazoidiak]

Mann..This is one of my favorites.

Saw it at 8 then 12 then 16..it used to be on periodically on TV growing up

and would scare me in a way no film has...then I never saw it until it was released on DVD and found out the title of the film Even a better film now to see it clean DVD . Peace thanks for the rare TV trailer.

[AngelofAnguish]

In my opinion, looks like the house (used) in the Amityville Horror WASN'T the ONLY house to "come alive" or "have a life of its own."

[sugaryourmind]

yo was this movie ahead of it's time or what?

[Seantendo]

They sure don't make horror movies like this anymore.

[Cosmic86x]

i can't believe that this movie has a 5.9 !! rating on imdb. i think this movie was very creepy and had great performences !

[lionhearted38]

Back then a lot of movies were PG that would be R today (take "It's Alive" for instance!!). Scary!!

[eblekj]

IT WAS RATED PG!?!?!?!?!?! wtf.

[seansw1]

I first saw this movie when i was eight years old and was scared to death of the chaffuer. Interesting how the chaffuer became the true star of this movie

[gauchokotso]

Right, the chauffeur was best. I saw the film before "In the Heat of the Night", I didn´t knew it was the same actor (Anthony James) playing there... looked so familiar :) I know the film only in german, and the boys voice there is shitty... anyway, the last scene scared the shit out of me when I was a child :)

[vestman95]

@gauchokotso

James' character was indeed the best. He gave me nightmares for a couple

years after that. Then I saw him in Naked Gun 2 and never looked at the

chauffeur the same way again. But he was a great character actor and I wish

he hadn't left showbiz back in 92.

[freqazoidiak]

@gauchokotso yeah, I had dreams about that last part when I was growing up.. the whole thing crumbling away. was truly surreal.

[lostintimeline]

can someone tell me what happened in the end??

SPOILER SPOILER SPOILER

was she possesed by the spirit of the old lady and she was haunted the house? or it was some evil spirit a demon like that

It was a great movie and it scared me when i was little.you dont see this kind of horror in 2days thriller

[1888junkteam]

this movie seemed a whole lot scarier when u are 7 especially the schauffeur

[rickjr37]

I saw this at the South Gate Drive in(in South Gate California,of course)playing as the second feature to "Rocky" with Sylvester Stallone. Scary shit for a 7 year old. And it was a PG movie!

[mattkissband]

the ending when he whips the chair around rattled the fuck out of me when i was a kid.......im 37 and it still does

nice chin

[WETNWILD85]

Also,Eileen Heckhart played on an episode of The Cosby Show. She was the neighbor that refused 2 take her medication.

[WETNWILD85]

This looks pretty good. Someone should put this up. I love classic horror films. Karen Black is so BEAUTIFUL. I didn't know the GREAT BETTE DAVIS would choose 2 do a film like this. I have 2 find this film.

[FigurinItOut]

Many, many years ago I read the book before seeing the movie. I was quite disappointed in the filmed version!

I just found the movie at a local library. I'll give it another try!

[FigurinItOut]

I gave it another try. BORING!!!!!

[vinylrecord68]

I remember watching this trailer on TV along with "The Omen" when I was 8...great scary stuff back then...

[Mystifier122]

Hell of a scary movie, I jumped out of my chair the first time I watched this.

[OliverReedFan]

I love this movie!!!! I think all of your videos and trailers are totally great, keep them coming!!!!

[OliverReedFan]

How did you recorded this trailer?

[vrj40]

This film was fantastic! It's nothing like watching a 70's horror flick. They don't make them like that any more....

[battlestarmarc]

good horror film with a scary ending.

[rqbuchanan]

Great schlock featuring a lot of terrific performances! I could watch Karen Black in anything.

[nothingbetter2du]

She's scary in this one, but Trilogy of Terror takes the cake when the warrior doll possesses her, and shes squatting on the kitchen floor with those fangs, grinding the knife in the floor. Right?

[splattergirl72]

I saw that as a kid and had nightmares about those teeth for ages.
