    Where to Watch

Patricia Neal and Cloris Leachman play feuding sisters in this tale of a village shaken by murders. Johnny: Ron Howard. Celia: Tessa Dahl. Eddie: Bobby Darin. Crystal: Kathie Browne. Piccolo: Joe Mascolo. Directed by Darren McGavin on location in Nova Scotia.

Muddled tale of bastard Howard, his cafe-owner mother (Leachman), and his strange aunt (Neal). Howard wanders through his Nova Scotia village trying to uncover its dark secrets, and a series of gruesome murders are mixed in for good measure. An excellent cast is lost in this mess, probably an indication of the original film being cut to ribbons before release. This was Darin's last movie before his death the same year after open-heart surgery.
