Robin Redbreast (1970)

Actually an 'episode' of "Play for Today" (TONS of good stuff there!). Bernard Hepton is a fave of mine; he was the 'orignal' Sam Toovey.

Night of the Demon [aka Curse of the Demon] (1957)

Apart from the hokey demon effects, this is a first rate folk/occult horror directed by Jacques Tourneur. Par his style, it is dripping with film noir moments.

The Blood on Satan's Claw (1971)

Often named as one of three "ulitmate" examples of folk horror, at least the British variety (along side Witchfinder General, and, of course, The Wicker Man)
