Rejected by her lover, the only man left in Cheryl's life is the orphaned nephew she has raised as her own son. She'll stop at nothing to keep Billy with her. When her plans misfire, she is swept up into an insane frenzy that means death to anyone who comes between her and her obsession. But the investigating detective is convinced that Billy is the real killer - and determined to prove it. Madness and fanaticism work together to drag all concerned into a terrifying vortex of blood-letting that adds a nightmarish twist to the classic Oedipus story.

Some very dated and uncomfortable themes for the times, which many considered a horror to even think about. Overall solid if a bit uneven at times. Great build up, tense moments, and all well played characters. More of a dark thriller than a horror for the most part. Even a young Bill Paxton as the bully! Susan Tyrell plays the aunt extremely well... possibly too well.

Very unique and interesting little horror flick. Quite the group of characters, that you don't usually see in these kind of films. I dug it!

Some good characters. Got the right build up. It gets silly and fun but never entirely ridiculous.
