I've never even heard of it. Can it be gotten on VHS?

It doesn't seem to be, unfortunately. I really hope it comes out on DVD one of these days. Hopkins was also great in The Elephant Man, though I sometimes forget he was even in the movie because of John Hurt's performance.

I have not! I take it I should?

Definitely! It's quite a good version of Shirley Jackson's The Haunting of Hill House.
