Novelist Joseph Shearing specialized in using real cases which took place in Victorian England, altering them for fictional purposes. MOSS ROSE in 1947 was the first film to be made from his novels, then in 1948 two of his works were adapted for the screen, this film and THE MARK OF CAIN. The movie stars Todd as a recently widowed missionary returning to her home in England from Jamaica. During the voyage, she meets Milland, a charming though dangerous rascal who is wanted by police in connection with some unsavory dealings. Milland contracts malaria while onboard the ship and Todd nurses him back to health. In London, Todd settles into her home, taking in boarders to make ends meet. Milland arrives, moves in, and proclaims his love for her. Todd is thrilled, but it seems rather obvious that Milland is only toying with her. Milland finds some letters written to her by her friend, Fitzgerald, in which Fitzgerald reveals some of her sexual indiscretions. Since Fitzgerald is now married to the wealthy Huntley, Milland believes he can use the letters to blackmail Fitzgerald. Todd's love for Milland is so great that she goes along with the plan. Huntley, however, learns of the scheme and also uncovers details of Milland's shady past. Fearing for her lover's safety, Todd poisons Huntley, then remains silent when Fitzgerald is arrested for the murder. Milland has by now genuinely fallen in love with Todd and the two make plans to leave England. Before they can depart, one of Milland's former lovers shows up and Todd, in a jealous rage, kills Milland, then turns herself into the police.
This is an intriguing film, although a little on the talky side. The performances are excellent throughout, with Milland shining as the cad, the type of role in which he excelled. Though he spent most of his time making films in the US, he occasionally returned to his native England for a production and this was his first British film since FRENCH WITHOUT TEARS in 1939. Director Allen was also an Englishman who chose to work in the US, this being his first directorial effort in his homeland. This was the fourth and last time Milland and Allen would work together, their pairing having begun in 1944 with the wonderfully eerie THE UNINVITED.
中规中矩，算是合格吧，看样子系列大概率终结！
不要相信任何人，男友果然是杀手，鬼面那个还会复活。
找找身边最亲近的人 凶手动机和过去的事有关 凶手是第一个被害者身边的人 又是电影爱好者和长发女是凶手
结尾部分的动作场面有点啰嗦，看得人昏昏入睡。
臺灣片名｜《驚聲尖叫5》
挺有意思的啊，可能我偏爱这类电影，找时间把前四部补一下。
这么多年了，主演们都老了，怎么比利还是这么帅！
这么离谱的电影也能上映，电影学生瞬间不想卷了
用疯批做反派的好处就是动机什么的无所谓了，你可以把凶手安在任何一个人身上都不会觉得突兀，还能美其名曰反转。倒是无时无刻不在打破第四面墙来吐槽并解构恐怖电影，很大程度上避免了让主角犯蠢的情节，但是细节上经不起推敲的地方仍然不少，比如基本上没有存在感的警察，比如肚子被打了一枪或者被捅了一刀，还能跟凶手打得有来有回。血浆很多，第三幕高潮还是能给人一种爽快的感觉。作为一部恐怖电影的续集，你不能奢求更多了。
一个模板拍了五部也是不容易，就连电影里也在玩requel的梗
For Wes.
和她一起看的，合格的续集，如果是系列的粉丝，那么十分值得一看。
槽点太多了，但是能够自反还是挺可贵的。
比4好看，女主最后真是又狠又帅（换谁不得这样啊哈哈哈）
没有好剧本可以不拍，像这种找几个老演员就想蒙混过关是可耻的行为
年度十佳预订🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤
我为什么要看这种痴呆无脑又没有逻辑的系列折磨自己呢🤔。哦，对了，是为了去看惊声尖笑😂😂😂😂
结局都能猜到，果然片子看多了能做编剧。主要是音效吓人。
最近的重启系列都喜欢找老演员（幸存者）回归，这部也不例外。Billy依然是个大帅比…
这个怎么能只有5.8呢？最起码可以有6.5分。
