A Name for Evil

A Name for Evil (1973)

Dissatisfied with the family architectural business, a man and his wife pack up and move out to his great-grandfather's old house in the country. While trying to patch it up, the house starts to make it clear to him that it doesn't want him there, but the local church (with some off-kilter practices of their own) seems to take a shine to him.

흥미로운 사실

A Name for Evil is a 1973 American horror film directed by Bernard Girard and starring Robert Culp and Samantha Eggar. An adaptation of the 1947 novel of the same name by Andrew Nelson Lytle, the film follows a man and his wife who relocate to his great-grandfather's country estate only to find themselves plagued by strange occurrences.

Production

A Name for Evil was adapted from the 1947 novel of the same name by Andrew Lytle. Producer Carl Hittleman had originally purchased rights to Lytle's novel in 1965 and planned to develop the film with Reed Sherman, who would co-star and produce. In 1966, it was reported that Art Weingarten had been appointed to write the screenplay. Sherman is credited on the film as a producer, though the extent of his involvement is unknown.

The film's original working title was The Grove. It was originally intended by director Bernard Girard to be a psychological drama and satire on modern affluence with elements of "paranormal paranoia."

Patrick O'Neal was originally cast in the lead role of John Blake, though the part was later re-cast with Robert Culp.

Principal photography took place in and around Vancouver, British Columbia, beginning on July 6, 1970, and was completed by the fall of that year. Portions of the film were shot in Deep Cove, while the house location was the historic Wigwam Inn.
