Alan Beattie directs Patricia Pearcy, David Hayward and Joseph Cotten in this mystery where a new nurse in a rich man’s house keeps uncovering strange goings ons.

A drunk butler, a crippled sugar daddy, a backwards stepchild in the attic, a seductive yuppie, a long lost relative raised in a cult with no social barrier and a doomed Alsatian. Part chiller, almost a slasher. Patricia Pearce might not be the best actress in the world but she is very nice to look at. A vacant, keeps putting herself in vague peril, type of hotness. The movie doesn’t add up to much at all but it gets the eerie atmosphere down pat.
