Based on the novel Conjure Wife by Fritz Leiber, Night of the Eagle is a taut, atmospheric and terrifying film that remains a much-loved cult classic to this day. Professor Norman Taylor (Peter Wyngarde) seemingly has it all: a great job, the envy of his colleagues, a happy marriage, and a healthy scepticism when it comes to the supernatural. However, things begin to unravel when Taylor discovers that his wife Tansy (Janet Blair) has been practicing witchcraft apparently in an effort to progress his career and to protect him from jealous colleagues. Despite Tansy’s warnings, Taylor insists on destroying all of her magic paraphernalia and tries to carry on as normal, refusing to believe that his wife’s witchcraft could have been behind his success. That is, until the very next day when things in his life start going very wrong…EXTRAS: Burn Witch, Burn: Anna Bogutskaya on Night of the Eagle, Archive Interview with Peter Wyngarde, US Theatrical Trailer, UK Theatrical Trailer, US Alternate Opening Credits, Audio Commentary with screenwriter Richard Matheson, Behind the Scenes stills gallery
