Frightmare
From the master of cult British horror: Pete Walker (House of Whipcord, The Flesh and Blood Show) comes this gruesome tale of dark secrets and bizarre realities.
Edmund and Dorothy Yates (Rupert Davies & Sheila Keith) were finally pronounced sane after they had spent 18 years in a mental hospital for a series of gory cannibal killings. Now, after their release Edmund's daughter Jackie (Deborah Fairfax), occasionally checks in on them at their secluded farmhouse and everything seems fine... until Jackie's psychiatrist boyfriend, Graham, starts poking around and uncovers the blood-spattered truth. Dorothy is crazier than ever, luring unsuspecting victims to her home for tarot card readings and then massacring them with fire pokers, electric drills and pitchforks! What'smore, this grisly craving apparently runs in the family...
