ROGER MOORE STARS IN “THE MAN WHO HAUNTED HIMSELF” (PG)

Part of The British Film Collection

Roger Moore gives a career-defining performance as a businessman whose existence is reshaped by malevolent forces in this taut psychological thriller directed by Ealing Films veteran Basil Dearden. THE MAN WHO HAUNTED HIMSELF (PG) will be available to own a Blu-ray and DVD double-disc set from 24 June RRP £19.99, courtesy of Network Distributing.

Harold Pelham, a partner in a large electronics firm, finds himself in bewildering circumstances after recovering from a near-fatal car accident. What causes him to renounce his high business principles? Why do friends and colleagues repeatedly sight him in places he has never been? And why does Julie, an attractive girl he has seen only once, claim such an intimate relationship with him? Does Pelham really have a doppelganger – or is he losing his mind?

Made during Moore’s post-Saint and pre-Persuaders career, this is the film that showcases Moore's big-screen charisma which would lead Cubby Broccoli to cast him as James Bond. THE MAN WHO HAUNTED HIMSELF is featured here in a brand-new High Definition transfer from original film elements in its as-exhibited cinema aspect ratio, complete and uncut.
