CGiii Comment

You just want to love it...BUT...you can't.

It is just too bloody obvious.

Baby Jane was a feast of the unexpected - this is an inferior and predictable carbon copy - a moronic and insulting waste of talent.

The(ir) Blurb...

Charlotte Hollis is a semi-recluse, and widely believed to be insane. 37 years earlier her boyfriend, John, was brutally murdered. She was charged with his murder but her wealthy, influential father managed to have the case dismissed. She is still haunted by John, thinking she sees or hears him at times. With the state government about to demolish her house to build a road, and her resisting their attempts to get her to leave, her cousin Miriam visits for a few days. The idea is to help her leave but soon sinister, threatening events start occurring.
