Curiosidades
Despite having several British actors and crew members, this film never got a cinema release in Britain. It had a brief video release in the early 1980s (luridly re-named "Lunatic") but is mainly known in the UK following TV showings and a DVD release (under its proper title) in the 21st century.

Pifias
The killer, Salem, is eventually, at the end of the film, proven to have been out of the asylum by the parrot in his clothing. However, this and each earlier time he was out could have been easily identified by his boots, which would have been soaked by the snow that he had to trek through.

Citas
The Parrot: Salem. Salem, come to supper!

Excellent lost 70's chiller - HIGHLY RCOMMENDED

I remember catching 'The Night Visitor' on UK late night TV in the late 70's. At that time I'd not heard of it but was hooked from the outset. Many of the haunting images stayed with me and recently I got all nostalgic and started searching for either video or DVD releases of several lost gems from the early 70's, amongst them 'And Soon The Darkness', 'I Start Counting' and of course 'The Night Visitor'. Success!!! as all titles were available on DVD (some are deleted from obscure labels but all frequently pop up on Ebay for reasonable amounts). Strangely, having caught up with several long forgotten film or TV shows from my childhood, most have been disappointing, however 'The Night Visitor' retains it's menacing, almost surreal air and Max Von Sydow carries the film with great support from Trevor Howard (who seems to be setting the tone for his later appearance in 1973's 'The Offence') and I even recalled Arthur Hewlett as the prison guard with the gnome-like features. All in all a MUST for any Von Sydow fan and any lover of quirky psychological thrillers, low on budget but high on plot and intrigue.
