Plot
For generations, each eldest daughter of the Nomed family has been possessed by an evil, demonic creature held captive in a mausoleum. This is the fate of Susan Walker Farrell, who entered the mausoleum upon the death of her mother, when she was ten years old. As an adult, she undergoes psychotherapy and is married to Oliver. He notices certain changes in his wife's behavior...
The film begins, appropriately, in a cemetery in the 1960s, where a 10-year-old girl
named Susan walks to the mausoleum, where bolts explode out of the stone wall and
the wrought-iron gate swings open, bathing Susan in a mysterious green light. She walks to a crypt marked with the family name NOMED, Inside, the shadowy figure beckons Susan forward to the rat-covered crypt. She pricks her finger on something that is later revealed to be a crown of thorns, prompting the stone cover to slide away and reveal a monstrous hand bathed in green light.
The film cuts to the present day, where Aunt Cora consults a psychiatrist. “Susan is starting to behave the same way her mother did before she died!”
The psychiatrist dismisses Cora’s anxiety and states helpfully, “Look, Cora. Susan’s a beautiful, grown woman now. She’s married. Let her lead her own life. It’s time to let go, Cora.”
Meanwhile, Susan takes flowers to her mother’s grave. She glances up at the mausoleum (which now appears to be about twenty yards from her mother’s grave, though it was across the cemetery previously). The filmmakers intercut Susan’s visit to the mausoleum with the psychiatrist’s reading of Susan’s family history: “Therefore did the demon extricate itself from the crown of thorns, departing the confines of the outer-rimmed area of Hell, and was rewarded with the eternal possession of the first female born of the family known as Nomed. Once having left the mausoleum, the demon is one with the possessed, and can only be returned to rest by the first-born, having reunited the demon with the crown of thorns. And, lest we forget, no Nomed woman must enter the sanctuary of the mausoleum.”
Of course, Susan enters the mausoleum, and is bathed in the same green light as before. However, Susan wakes up in her mansion with her husband Oliver (played by Marjoe Gortner) holding her hand—her visit to the mausoleum was just a dream. Or was it?
Yes, it was.
The next day, after Oliver has left on a business trip, Susan gives her maid a grocery order and is then sexually harassed by the family handyman Ben. The film then follows Ben as he goes about his handyman work—he fertilizes a bush, drives a riding mower, eats lunch while reading a book. Eventually, Susan appears on a balcony wearing only a towel. She lets the towel drop, exposing her breasts to Ben, and then her wine glass cracks. Again, nothing serious happens.
Finally, at night, Susan leads Ben to the garage, where she kisses him and makes love to him on a dirty mattress.
Here is a tasty exchange between the two lovers:
"- Come here, you.
- Oh. (lip bite kissing)
- You bitch you. (both laughing)
- You didn't expect anything different, did you?
- You know, Mrs. Farrell, you had me fooled for a while."
Afterward, Ben compliments her sensitively: “I’ve had some women in my time. Some of them real pros, you know what I mean? But, uh, sure as hell you beat them all.”
