This psychological horror opus from controversial director Victor Salva stars Rose McGowan as Sonny Blake. She's a radio therapist who moves back to her charming and idyllic hometown after her alcoholic dad dies. All seems fine, until she learns that the neighbors are terrified, across to board, of a local newspaper boy (Daniel Ross Owens). As it turns out, their fears are justified: he's a psychopath who may have been responsible for the murders of Sonny's dad and others in the community.
