Here is an interesting question with an interesting story behind it:

When I was a young child I had the unfortunate incident of viewing a
particularly scary horror movie with frightened me for several nights
thereafter. I have no idea when this movie was made or whether it made
it to theatre or was a lowly "B" flick. I saw this movie in the
mid-late eighties.

I have never been able to remember the name (I probably never knew it
to begin with), but I am able to recall a couple of scenes that may
allow a horror buff to help define its title. Please help if you can:

Rememberance #1: Part (or all) of the movie takes place at a building
(be it a residence or otherwise) in the middle of what I guess is a
forest. There are a group of characters trying to escape this place by
vehicle, but all of the roads mysteriously lead back to the building.
There's no way out!!!

Rememberance #2: In one scene, a woman (I think) is eating supper with
a group of other people when a large bone is lodged in her throat. She
is choking horribly and if I remember correctly, they vividly and
graphically cut her throat to allow her to breathe.

Rememberance #3: In another scene, someone is swimming in a pool and a
sheet of glass spreads across the surface, effectively drowning her.

These are the only bits that I can remember, so if you can help me
out, you'd be solving a question that has plagued me for YEARS!!!

Thanks!
-Nick.

This is an easy one, it's called "The Legacy." It stars Katherine Ross and Sam
Elliot i believe, and it's not a bad little film at all.

If I recall correctly, I also remember seeing that movie and the title
of it is "The Legacy". It is from 1978, and starred Katherine Ross, Sam
Elliot, and Roger Daltrey.

Hope this helps you put your demons to rest!
