Hex symbols?


I love this movie and watched it over and over as a kid whenever it would show up on 'Dialing for Dollars'. Unfortunately, that was back in the 70's and I haven't seen it since.

I seem to recall a scene where a woman finds hex signs (hidden?) on a barn or some other structure along with bottle filled with creatures? Is that part of DBAOTD or am I thinking of some other movie?

Thanks!

Definitely some other movie.

That sounds like "Something Evil" (1972). Also a tv movie.

You are correct. It was another, well-made supernatural gothic made-for-tv thriller, SOMETHING EVIL. The late Darren McGavin (d.2005 or 2006) portrayed the loving, understanding, advertising executive husband and father. The actress who portrayed the wife was a solid B list actress with lots of film/tv credit to her name. She passed away in 1994 or 95 from illness.

Something Evil, 1972, starred Darren McGavin, Sandy Dennis and Ralph Bellamy, and it was directed by Steven Spielberg, his follow-up to Duel!
