Looking for a kind-of-Horror Hammer film - Help needed

Hi there! Inspired on Darkhaund's topic I come looking for help, maybe there's someone here that has seen this film I'm looking for and remembers it better.

What I do remember: There is this mannor in England or Scotland (or maybe new england/maine?) it seemed to my 9 y/o eye like it took place in England, not sure, and there are witches and covens involved. Some terrible secret lies behind a massive huge door in the basement, like, garage-door big. There's this group of people and they all are concerned with the witching / satanism in question going on, and one of them spies on the witches one night when the witches perform a summoning ritual. This guy vanishes and his friends go looking for him, only to find the garage door open and the guy flattened to a wall by the force of the door opening (supposedly because the devil was summoned and the doors flung open while he was eave dropping on the ritual). That's as much as I remember of the plot, no idea about anything else, the ending or the setup.

Visually, it seemed like a movie from the early 70's perhaps? lots of bushy hair on the characters, It's not a Hammer film per-se but it has a similar look to those kind of movies. I have the strong impression that David Warner was involved or an actor that looks like him in one of the main roles, though I might be mixing this movie with The Omen.

Other than that, I have no more clues, I've already gone over the entire list of Hammer films and can't find anything that fits my memory of that movie, so, If any of you find what I described familiar maybe you can help me finding the name of the film and maybe I can re-watch it someday in the future.

You sure it wasn't a documentary?

This youtube channel does reviews of a lot of horror especially old style stuff. I leave it up to you to scroll through the videos to see if they have it. That scene does sound familiar though.

I went through this list and looked. Other than The Brotherhood of Satan, nothing in the 1970's and 1980's parts of the list comes very close. That movie is different enough that I don't think it's the one.

Thanks guys, It may have been a made for tv movie, or part of an anthology type of movie, but there's no trace of it I can find yet. None of the listed movies in the list ring a bell either. One would think a movie where a door flattens a guy to the wall would have its dedicated fans or made a bigger impression in audiences.

Crowhaven Farm, Last Bride of Salem, and The Devil's Daughter pop up in my search of keywords. Crowhaven Farm showed up on a few searches, the others only once. Dunno if that's helpful.

*edit* I just searched "witch movie 1970s made for TV man squished by door" and Crowhaven popped up again. Could be..

Here's a list of movies https://www.imdb.com/list/ls077351014/

Crowhaven is up on youtube and I quickly scrubbed through it, doesn’t look like it fits the description. Seems to be about a women moving to a farm where she starts having flashbacks of a past life where Puritans killed her for being a witch.

Hmm. Maybe it's one of those anthology TV shows then?

Actually, I've thought many times that maybe it was a dream I had, but the memory is way too clear of that scene in particular for it to be a dream.

Thank you guys, great leads, going over them in search for clues. Crowhaven isn't it though, it's way too american-looking. If it helps in any way, another detail I didn't bring up on the OP, the feel of the movie / ambient reminds me of old Tom Baker's Dr. Who episodes if that makes sense. Gloomy foggy english countryside with a neglected state o mannor. Other thing, the "door" I talk about it's not exactly in the basement of the house if I recall correctly, I think it was located inside the terrains of a house, maybe as part of a complex (mannor, chapel, greenhouse?)

New results with new words:
The Shuttered Room
The Witches 1966
The Dark Secret of Harvest Home
