A kid (Jimmy McNicol) is bought up by his possessive aunt (Susan Tyrrell). She wants him to stay with her forever...and will kill if anyone tries to stop her.
An effective little horror film. It manages to work homophobia and incest into its plot and has a few nicely bloody murders. Tyrrell is excellent as the aunt and Bo Svenson matches her as a detective on the case. Unfortunately McNichol is not that good. He's handsome and in good shape but a total blank. He flashes some nudity too in a shower scene. Not some unsung classic but a good strong horror film not deserving its obscurity.
