Malicious (1973) – A Forgotten Gem of Paranoia and Psychological Terror
A beautiful young model’s seemingly perfect life begins to unravel when a series of sinister “accidents” lead her to suspect that someone close to her is playing a deadly game—but is the threat real, or is she losing her mind?
In the chilling British thriller Malicious , director Ian Fordyce crafts a taut, atmospheric story of suspicion and shattered trust. The film follows Susan Manning (played with brittle intensity by Gillian Bailey), a rising London model whose world is turned upside down following a mysterious car accident that leaves her injured and haunted.
