English Summary:

The Man Who Haunted Himself is a 1970 British psychological thriller film written and directed by Basil Dearden (his final film prior to his death by automobile accident in 1971) and starring Roger Moore. It was based on the novel The Strange Case of Mr Pelham by Anthony Armstrong.

While driving his Rover P5B, uptight city worker Harold Pelham appears to become possessed and has a serious high-speed accident. On the operating table, he briefly suffers clinical death, after which there appear to be two heartbeats on the monitor. When he awakes, Pelham finds his life has been turned upside-down; in his job as a director of a marine technology company he learns that he now supports a merger that he once opposed, and that he apparently is having an affair. Friends, colleagues and acquaintances claim to have seen him in places where he has never been, and Pelham starts being followed by a mysterious silver car (a Lamborghini Islero). Does Pelham have a doppelgänger or is he actually going insane?

 

Hungarian Summary:

Harold Pelham, a gazdag üzletember, borzalmas autóbalesetet szenved. Míg az operációs asztalon fekszik, a monitor egyszer csak szokatlan dolgot "művel": két ember szívverését jelzi egyszerre. Ezt követően a már halottnak nyilvánított férfi csodálatos módon mégis magához tér, ébredése után pedig furcsa dolgokat tapasztal. Korábbi élete a feje tetejére állt, amelyben valaki a nevét és az arcát bitorolva irányítja üzleteit, befészkeli magát családjába, s amellett, hogy viszonyt folytat egy nővel, még feleségével is újjáéleszti unalmassá vált szexuális életüket. Az üzletember szerencsétlenségére hasonmása kiszámíthatatlan, agresszív személyiség, és halálosan egyértelművé teszi Harold számára: hamarosan megszabadul tőle, hogy idővel teljesen átvehesse a helyét...
