The chilling psychological period chiller THE NIGHTCOMERS – starring Marlon Brando, Stephanie Beacham, Thora Hird, and Harry Andrews – makes its worldwide UHD debut on April 27 as part of STUDIOCANAL’s Cult Classics range, with a magnificent brand new 4K restoration, featuring a host of extras and four art cards. The film is also released on Blu-ray and Digital.

Marlon Brando’s intense performance dominates this atmospheric, sexually charged feature from a golden age of British horror, directed by the legendary Michael Winner (Death Wish). The film, also starring Stephanie Beacham (Schizo), sketches a prequel to Henry James’ classic Gothic novella The Turn of the Screw, with Brando in typically compelling form as the servant whose disturbing, magnetic presence exerts a corrupting hold over the occupants of a country estate.

Described by acclaimed critic Rex Reed as “gripping, spine-tingling and terrific” and “eerily and effectively told” by The Sunday Express,, THE NIGHTCOMERS is dripping with atmosphere and laden with dread, and features steamy scenes between Brando and Beacham that is bound to bring Henry James purists out in a cold sweat. Fans of Jack Cardiff’s The Turn of the Screw adaption The Innocents and Nicole Kidman’s creepy classic The Others shouldn’t miss this: one of Winner’s most fascinating and sheerly enjoyable films.

THE NIGHTCOMERS is available to buy on 4K UHD, Blu-ray and Digital from 27th April 2026 and available to pre-order.
