I saw it when it first came out at the cinema & it scared the Hell out of me, but since I've tried to obtain it on video, no luck! Nobody's even heard of it!!

Really? Nobody has heard of it?
Odd, it was mildly popular, not a real big film, but still kinda memorable. It may have actually been a high budget made for TV movie.
Didn't the house fall in on them and kill them? I think Bette Davis gets mashed by the chimney while outside. It's been awhile since I saw it.
You can probably find a copy on Ebay, or go over to imdb.com and look up the movie, and then look on the film's message board for leads. Films like this go in and out of print all the time.

Yes he played Ben Rolf - good horror film at the time.
"Haunted house chiller (1974) from Dan Curtis has Oliver Reed and Karen Black as summer caretakers moving into gothic house with their young son"
It's bound to be SCI FI or a horror channel fairly frequently.
