Wait 30secs. Movie still not playing? Click the "Can't Watch?" tab.
Click this first
A new tab will open and a basic security check like a captcha will be performed. After completing the check, close that page and return here.
Refresh this page. Wait 30 secs. The movie should load and you can just hit play.
If it still doesn't play, Click here to watch the movie
The movie should now start playing in a new tab of your browser or begin downloading to your device. This option has the minor disadvantage that English-language movies with optional subtitles in the movie player will not include these subs with this method.
The new system here has been designed keeping in mind even people with low internet speeds sub-8mbps. Even if you have a really bad connection, you should still be able to watch the movie without any issues if you:
Start the movie. Pause it. Wait for 30-45 seconds. Start playing again.
This 'Can't Watch' method really only works if it's your specific device/browser that's interfering with the player. There is no real advantage of speed here. Or if there is a temp network glitch or read lag from the server disk.
If you're still having problems, try using 'Incognito mode' in your browser. On iPhones, especially older ones, use Chrome instead of Safari. Might help.
IMPORTANT: Please make sure that the newly opened tab is not an ad popup asking you to download some software or whatever. Close any such popups and don't download any software - those are ads. Nothing is needed to be done by you other than to complete the security check which is often automated.

Plot – Spoilers:
Gideon, a British writer of paranormal fiction is intrigued by several cases of suicides that have occurred closely together.

Gwen is a musician who admires the renowned but weird organist Von Drachenfels whom she met during her journey by ship. He’d invited her over to his country lodge and when she goes over along with Gideon, things get more bizarre, which further intrigues the writer in Gideon that’s always on the prowl for such stories.
Have you ever watched paint dry for 3 hours? This film is mind numbingly slow and hard to follow. The first 2 hours are slow as shit. The 3rd hour starts to get really fucking weird in a slow and dull kind of way. What does it all mean? It has something to do with some spiritual bullshit and the Greek alphabet. The highlight: Gideon kills Count Dracula. The lowlight: Sting – keep your day job. 2 stars.
Could have done with more tits. Subtitles would help when the hero mumbles his atrocious king’s englitch into his coat pockets.. the saving grace of this film is the main character may have been the inpiration for AUSTIN POWERS International Man of Mi
Things were made differently in 1981. This is a slow burning cerebral drama that gets to you in subtle ways. probably a 6 episode / 30 min TV serial that is put together for this 3 hour ‘film’. Some lovely views of the UK.
I would put money on it ,that whoever made this for the
BBC also was behind the 70′ s sci fi series ‘ The Tomorrow People’ in fact the female musician with the short hair I’ m sure was in it…If anyone is interested in architecture that huge cathedral is the Liverpool Anglican Cathedral & it’s possible to climb up inside that he’ll tower ,done so many times .Where the woman lives …most definitely that is next to John Lennon’ s old flat in Gambier Terrace ,we lived in his flat many years ago and I.recognised that view anywhere .
Where do we lost requests please?? Huge thanks I’ve greatly enjoyed your site..I.probably avoid certain genres but you’ve got some great underground films here x
Don’t bother this is a steaming pile of BOREDOM!
