Title: Help with a movie!
Post by: Beau Scott on October 02, 2008, 12:02:41 PM
Hello,
I need help with a movie from my childhood.
I saw this movie in middle school during class one day. The teacher brought the movie in  and we only got to see half of the movie.
 So I never got to finish watching the movie or  never learned the title.
Here goes...
A black family(father, mother and two sons) inherits a house from a  relative, an uncle or grandfather, the house might have a former slave plantation, because the property was vast and isolated with underground tunnels and praries.
The two sons leave the house on their own to investigate the grounds and discover underground tunnels and caves. Unknown to the boys, they're being wactched by a mysterious figure and followed, to a degree.
During the night, the mysterious figure enters the house through  secret passage and leaves either a dagger or carved warning in the boys' bedroom door.
In the morning the parents are alarmed to discover the warning left behind.
And that's all I saw of the movie.
I believe the movie was made in the '70s because of the grainy film quailty.
If anyone can help me out, I'd appreciate it very much.
Thanks,
beau
