Just watched The Collector (1965) Credits in the poster.



A social misfit, amateur lepidopterist who has come into some money, kidnaps a beautiful, artsy girl that he has fallen in love with from a distance, and hides her away in his dungeon. He does what he can to make her fall in love with him. He has serious 'putting women on a pedestal' problems.

Tender, insightful, chilling and enthralling. Well worth watching.

Author John Fowles made a pretty big splash with this novel. It was pretty good, and the flick was good too. I fell in love with Samantha Eggar when I saw this one, and couldn't shake it for a while. A creepy project but cool anyway.
