Absolution
At a Catholic children' college, severe disciplinarian Daddy Goddard subjugate his students with a tight hand. When one of his teen fees confesses to murder, the dogmatic however deeply repressed Goddard locates his belief challenged and also his life spiralling hazardously uncontrollable. Also starring Billy Connolly (in his first feature-film function), Dominic Guard, Kes celebrity Dai Bradley, as well as the unmatched Brian Glover, and composed by the excellent Anthony Shaffer, Absolution is one of British cinema's most underrated chillers, not least for a towering main efficiency by Burton.
