Die Sister, Die! (also known as The Companion) is a 1978 American thriller film directed by Randall Hood. Starring Jack Ging, Edith Atwater and Antoinette Bower.

Storyline:
Edward (Jack Ging) a disturbed and tormented man, is tired of the "allowance" granted him by his reclusive and senile sister Amanda (Edith Atwater) and becomes impatient for her death and his inheritance. To hasten her demise, or at least stop her suicides from being thwarted, Edward hires Esther (Antoinette Bower), a discredited ex-nurse, to watch over her. Esther is less than enthusiastic about killing the old woman, and curious about the secrets that are held in the gothic mansion and the eerie secret in the basement, including a mysterious third sister, Nell.
