This is the first one and it's a no frills horror film with no nudity. I mention this because as the sequels progressed, the nudity factor went way up.
This is more of a low budget "Rosemary's Baby" than anything else. A young woman named Grace (Anat Topal) gives birth and her husband John (Gary Sloan) takes her and the child to live with his mother Elizabeth (Mary Shelley) until she is strong enough to return home.
The birth was a difficult one and Grace is still a little weak. Grave has a good friend named Linda (Deborah Scott) who visits her regularly. Soon Grace begins to suspect something is wrong as it seems that John and his mother ar closer than she thinks they should be.
Turns out that both of them are revived witches and they used Grace as a vehicle for having a baby. John and Elizabeth were actually man and wife many years ago and were burned at the stake for practicing witchcraft.
I first saw this many, many years ago on VHS and didn't like it too well. After all these years, I liked it a bit better, but I do have to admit it lacks a lot of character.
The best part of the move is when Deborah Scott is on screen. You might want to check this out if you're a horror fan. It's not the best, but it's not anywhere near the worst either.
