Jeff (Timothy Daly) emerges from his weekly basketball game and witnesses a woman being menaced by a man with a knife. He intervenes and discovers that the woman, Miranda (Kelly Preston), is alone and desperate and has nowhere to stay. He takes her in, and the two become lovers, but soon an ominously threatening woman calling herself Mrs. White (Audra Lindley) shows up, claiming that Miranda belongs to her and her coven of Satan-worshiping witches. And they want her back.

Alexandra Heller-Nicholas Film International Janet Greek's films might not be for everyone, but they sure as hell are custom-made for me. Nov 13, 2021 Full Review Mike Massie Gone With The Twins A serviceable, obscure little production, capturing the feel of countless other supernatural horror pictures from the ’80s. Rated: 4/10 •  Nov 8, 2024 Full Review

alan g I thought the lawyers were Satanists. Go figure. No professional courtesy? Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 11/10/24 Full Review Saint B Creepy movie. Loved the chemistry between the leads, which makes the ending hit hard. Great atmosphere in this film that is perfect for the spooky season. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 08/09/23 Full Review
