This psychological horror film is an Anglo-Canadian ptroduction about a bereaved mother suffering the attentions of a different child in her new home. With echoes of Rosemary's Baby and Don't Look Now, this one is slow to get going but improves markedly in the latter half.
Mia Farrow ( as Julia )
Sex : No
Death : Has her throat slit with the cymbals on her child's toy.
Sophie Ward ( as Kate )
Sex : N/a
Death : Either directly from choking on food or Julia's attempt at a tracheotomy
This was 12-year old Sophie's first acting role. She has gone on to a successful TV acting career notably in Heartbeat. In recent years, she has been more active as a writer.
Samantha Gates ( as Olivia)
Sex : Described as sexually precocious by another character
Death : Smothered by her mother
Samantha was a child model whose main claim to fame was appearing naked on the cover of Led Zeppelin's Houses of the Holy. Her acting career petered out at the end of the eighties.
