In a quiet suburban town in the summer of 1958, two recently orphaned sisters are placed in the care of their mentally unstable Aunt Ruth. But Ruth's depraved sense of discipline will soon lead to unspeakable acts of abuse and torture that involve her young sons, the neighborhood children, and one 12-year-old boy whose life will be changed forever.
Editor's Verdict
"The movie is explicitly set in the summer of 1958 and features genres (Thriller, Crime, Horror) that are antithetical to typical Christmas movie tropes. There is no indication of any Christmas setting, plot relevance, thematic connection, iconography, or resolution related to the holiday."
