The Butler did it in Blue Blood, a 1973 British horror film relating the story of a scheming servant who may be possessed by the devil, trying to wrest control of a stately home away from its rightful owners. Although the Italian name for this film suggests that it is a sequel to Ken Russell's 1971 film also starring Oliver Reed called The Devils, there is in fact no connection other than the actor being in both. Beauty and the Beast p. 77.
