In New
England, four old men entertain
each other by telling ghost
stories. But these men are
tormented by their own
horrendous real-life tale,
involving a crime they committed
against a young lady
during their
youth -- an act they've hidden
for the past 50 years. But this
secret comes back to haunt them,
as the evil spirit of the woman
avenges the crime committed
against her.
Four elderly men who gather once
a week to thrill each other with
tales of terror find one of
their scariest stories coming to
life, as a woman they mistakenly
left for dead fifty years
earlier returns to life to gain
revenge. Featuring stellar
talent, including Fred Astaire,
Melvyn Douglas, Douglas
Fairbanks, Jr., and John
Houseman as the main characters,
this superior, chilling horror
film takes its story from a
novel by Peter Straub.
Fred Astaire's final film. He
died in 1987. Also Melvyn
Douglas' final film. |
