Home for the Holidays
Adult sisters Alex, Freddy, Jo, and Chris Morgan have been estranged from their wealthy father, Benjamin, for nine years, blaming him for their mother's suicide. Their relationship stems from Benjamin having had an affair with Elizabeth Hall, now Mrs. Benjamin Morgan; the girls couldn't tolerate what happened to their mother because of their father or that Elizabeth has taken her place. Freddy has turned to booze and pills to cope, while party girl Jo has little to no thoughts of family. Chris, the youngest, is the innocent who can only take her sisters' word about what was happening as she was too young at the time to fully comprehend much. They all turn to eldest sister Alex in their time of need. On Christmas Eve, they return to their isolated rural home at their elderly father's request; he has reinstated them into his will. Largely bedridden, he believes that Elizabeth is slowly poisoning him to death, and he wants the girls to stop her in any way they can--including killing her if they must. Elizabeth is unaware of his true reason for summoning his daughters. He believes that Elizabeth was charged, but acquitted, of the murder of her first husband, whose cause of death was officially listed as suicide by self-induced poisoning. What happens between the girls under the circumstances is largely affected by their unofficial "roles" within the family. Shortly after their arrival, a torrential storm passes through the region, leaving them stranded as the sole road to the property is washed out and the phone lines are knocked out. It then becomes clear to some that Elizabeth is not only trying to kill Benjamin, but them as well. Or are there other factors in play for the potentially deadly occurrences on the Morgan property as Benjamin, Elizabeth, and the girls are stranded there together?
