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.

Top Critics Reviews
rotten:
The kind of movie that makes you wish you could rinse your brain in bleach, to wash all traces of it from your memory.

There's little reason to see the movie. Unless, of course, you get off on watching the sexual exploitation of underage girls.

rotten:
Beneath the 1950's seemingly placid exterior of Ozzie and Harriet normalcy, there were -- brace yourself! -- sinister undercurrents at work.
