Crucible of Horror (1971), directed by Viktors Ritelis, is a British psychological horror film centered on a domineering and abusive patriarch whose cruelty toward his family leads to violent consequences. Starring Mike Raven and Mary Maude, the film reflects the darker tone of early 1970s UK horror cinema, focusing on familial tension and moral decay rather than supernatural elements.

Michael Gough delivers a disturbingly sinister performance as a domineering sadist and family gaslighter in this tense, vérité-style psychological horror from director Viktors Ritelis. With strong performances from Sharon Gurney and BAFTA-winner Yvonne Mitchell, and an unsettling musical score from John Hotchkis, Crucible of Horror (also known as The Corpse) has been painstakingly restored by Hammer from the original film negatives.

Walter Eastwood rules his family with a rod of iron, terrorising his wife and daughter with little provocation. Following a particularly vicious beating, his wife decides theres only one solution to their ongoing torment Walter must die.
