Plot details

The film is about an American woman, Pat Carroll (Powers), who visits Mrs Trefoile (Bankhead), the mother of her deceased fiancé, at a secluded house on the edge of an English village. Mrs Trefoile is fanatically religious, and it soon becomes apparent she blames Pat for her son's death. With the help of her equally psychotic servants, she holds Pat captive in an attempt to cleanse her soul.
