Closed Captioned; Standard Screen; Soundtrack English Based on Henry James's TURN OF THE SCREW, THE INNOCENTS is a chilling psychological horror film about a woman, Miss Giddens (Kerr), who takes a position as governess for two orphans in a stately Victorian home. Alone with the children and only a few servants, Miss Giddens soon begins to see what she believes to be ghosts and begins to suspect that the children's increasingly bizarre behavior may be the result of some supernatural power. When she learns the fate of the house's previous governess and valet, Miss Giddens takes it upon herself to rescue the children from the supernatural being that seems to have them in its grips, all the while questioning her own sanity. Ms. Kerr's nuanced performance, possibly the best of her career, and Mr. Francis's atmospheric cinematography help make this a true horror classic. Innocents Reviews: "...The great Deborah Kerr ghost classic..."
-- Mike Clark, USA Today 3.5 stars out of 4 -- "[A] stunning example of a now almost ignored truism of the horror genre: a movie need not show so much as the tiniest fleck of viscera to be absolutely terrifying."
-- Claire Evans, Premiere 5 stars out of 5 -- "Jack Clayton's genuinely sinister Victorian ghost movie is a British cinema classic."-- Total Film Staff, Total Film 4 stars out of 5 -- "Jack Clayton's 1961 black-and-white chiller remains the definitive English horror film."-- Jonathan Romney, Uncut "Clayton's superbly unsettling chiller derives its potency from restraint and near-subliminal suggestion."-- Matthew Leyland, Sight and Sound Innocents | List Price | $14.98 (You save $4.69) | | Studio | 20th Century Fox | | Orig Year | 1961 | | DVD Encoding | Region 1 | | All Time Sales Rank |  6201  | | CD Universe Part number | 6882546 | | Catalog number | 2230296 | | Discs | 1 | | Release Date | Sep 06, 2005 | | Rating | Not Rated | | Running Time | 100 Minutes | | Additional Info | 20th Century Fox | | Movie Details | B&W; Digitally Processed; 20th Century Fox |

When released theatrically in 1932, FREAKS was met with near universal disgust by critics and audiences alike, lasting in theatres for only a short time in the states and banned in England. The film stars Harry Earles as Hans, a suave midget who belongs to the sideshow of a seedy circus and who makes the mistake of falling in love with the beautiful Cleopatra, one of the "normal" circus performers. Learning that Hans is about to inherit a fortune, Cleopatra agrees to marry Hans even though she abhors him, planning to steal his money and get rid of him. When the freaks of the circus, who keep a watchful eye on Cleopatra, discover her scheme, they plan to exact an unforgettable revenge.
Far more unsettling than Browning's best known horror film, DRACULA, FREAKS has long been neglected due to its subject matter, even though it is a genuinely effective film. Gripping and often creepy, FREAKS manages to humanize its main performers, even looking at them with a sense of awe. By contrast, the "normal" performers in the film are largely hateful creatures who turn ...
