A widow deceives her late husband's mother and brothers into thinking he's still alive when she attends the yearly memorial to his drowned sister, hoping to secure his inheritance, but her cunning is no match for the demented, axe-wielding thing roaming the grounds of the family's Irish estate.

How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A cunningly dark descent into madness at a decaying Irish castle where a schemer's greed collides with a festering family tragedy and a killer in the shadows. The film wraps psychological manipulation in the trappings of proto-slasher horror, building dread through atmosphere and the knowledge that death lurks among the very people mourning the dead.
