Highly compelling supernatural tale starring Roger Moore, in what is almost certainly his best performance (it was apparently his favourite role). For fans of classic British horror, and indeed British cinema of the late 60s/early 70s in general, this one is a must. Imprint must be commended for putting together what is surely the definitive release, including the old commentary featuring Roger Moore as well as a new one with the brilliant Jonathan Rigby, as well as a couple of interesting new featurettes.

Harold Pelham (Roger Moore) is a successful business executive who lives with his wife and two children. One morning, Pelham drives to work and unexpectedly gets into a tragic car crash. Fortunately, he survives and eventually makes a full recovery. After returning to work, Pelham tries to resume everyday life. During a board meeting, Pelham strongly opposes a potential merger within his company. Additionally, suspicions arise that confidential information has been leaked to the opposing company, adding to his concerns. In addition to the stress of business discussions and frequent disagreements with his wife, many unexplainable things begin to occur in Pelham’s life. His close friends claims to have seen him at various clubs and events when, in fact, Pelham hasn’t been to those types of places recently. As Pelham attempts to move forward with his life, things only worsen, and he soon becomes convinced that there must be some doppelgänger attempting to ruin his life. Now, Pelham is on the hunt to track down who (or perhaps what) is the cause of all these misunderstandings. Directed by Basil Dearden, known for his previous work on "Dead of Night" (1945) and "Victim" (1961), this film was inspired by the book "The Case of Mr. Pelham" by Anthony Armstrong, as well as a short story from the popular television series "Alfred Hitchcock Presents". With its premise, storyline, and intense mystery, the film certainly feels like an Alfred Hitchcock production and features a significant reveal at the conclusion. The central mystery is extremely intriguing. I found myself guessing at the many possible outcomes and solutions to the problem. Has Pelham become a madman since his car accident? Does he have a twin that he doesn't know about? Or is the issue he's experiencing more supernatural? Perhaps someone within his work world is setting him up? As the film progresses, the mystery deepens, and Pelham's life becomes more inexplicable and challenging." Overall, The Man Who Haunted Himself is an exciting film that starts off strong and presents a compelling mystery. I had a great time uncovering the twists and turns. Roger Moore's captivating and playful performance as a character consumed by his quest for the truth was thoroughly enjoyable. The stylish camerawork and creative shots added to the film's appeal, although it may feel a bit dated by today's standards. However, the weakest aspects are the finale and the reveals. Some finer details about the ending are left for viewers to interpret. * This review has been written for Sanity.
