Ira Levin's classic comedy thriller! Sidney Bruhl hasn't written a hit play for 18 years when he receives a script from a former student that's a guaranteed success. Sidney jokes that maybe he should just murder the young man and steal the script for his own. But when the student arrives later that evening, no one - not even Helga Ten Dorp, the visiting psychic - could predict where the dark events of the night will go.
