Lots is going on in this low budget shocker. A family move into a farmhouse during a local killing spree. The three daughters are precocious, sardonic and stunning, mum Bernice (Amanda Wyss) copes with it all, and dad Tom (Jay Mohr) doesn’t have any lenses in his spectacles. Unwisely, you might think, the daughters are left along in the house.
As the story rolls along, it becomes apparent that we’re not invited to take things entirely seriously. This never lapses into comedy, but many moments are distinctly tongue in cheek. All the double-entendres about a girl’s ‘first time’, for example, are given extra meaning within the context of various revelations, which are a long time coming.
What we get is just under 80 minutes that are entertaining enough, but probably don’t warrant a second viewing. My score is 6 out of 10.
