ABOUT MOVIE-
A woman haunted by psychosexual nightmares begins to believe her father is responsible for a series of scissor-murders.
PLOT-
Ingrid is a young Swedish woman residing with her American uncle Carl at his farm in rural Northern California. One night, a local young girl is murdered with a pair of scissors by an unknown assailant. Her killing baffles the town locals. Meanwhile, Bill Spry, a new addition to the church choir in which Ingrid sings, takes an interest in Ingrid, but she is evasive. En route home one night, Ingrid is attacked by a masked figure, but manages to escape. The attack triggers memories of Ingrid's sexual molestation by her father, and the subsequent suicide of her mother. Later that evening, a local woman, Nell, is attacked and murdered in her car following an angry interaction with Bill at a tavern.
The following morning, Ingrid finds Nell's mutilated body on the farm; she has been stabbed with a pair of scissors. After police remove the body and interview her, Ingrid is left alone at the farmhouse. While she takes a shower, a town butcher, Frankie, breaks in and attacks her before raping her. Carl returns home in the middle of the assault, but is unaware it is happening. Frankie threatens Ingrid before leaving the house. The next evening, Ingrid prays at the local church, but is interrupted when Frankie arrives to confess his transgression to the vicar. Ingrid leaves, and Frankie again attacks her outside, but the rape is thwarted when the vicar hears her screaming.
Ingrid is hospitalized and visited by Sheriff Peterson; outside her room, the vicar informs Sheriff Peterson that his daughter, Loretta, is carrying Frankie's child. Peterson quickly drives to Frankie's house and attacks him, handcuffing him to a pipe and chastising Loretta. Meanwhile, local police encounter a masked assailant attack a woman on the street, and chase after him. Just before he is about to arrest Frankie for the killings, Peterson receives a phone call on Frankie's landline from deputies notifying him they have cornered the killer at the saw mill. The assailant is shot dead, and when unmasked, revealed as Bill.
That night, Ingrid sees news footage notifying residents that Bill was the killer. Shortly after, Frankie arrives at the house, binding and gagging Carl. Ingrid attacks Frankie with a fire poke before stabbing him to death. Carl dissuades her from contacting the police and buries Frankie, but Ingrid flees to the police station anyway to explain what happened. The next morning, Peterson and the deputies search the property; Carl has fled, and only Ingrid is there. During the search, Peterson is startled to see Frankie arrive at the house; simultaneously, the deputies find Ingrid's goat buried in a shallow grave in the yard. Peterson goes upstairs to confront Ingrid, and finds her dead in the bathroom of suicide.
At Ingrid's funeral, Carl, who appears older, meets Peterson, and the two depart together. Peterson explains to Carl that Ingrid's alleged attacks from Frankie were hallucinations, and that the physical evidence collected after them showed no evidence of Frankie being at the scene; additionally, her autopsy confirmed she was a virgin. Carl explains that he has not visited her in a very long time, suggesting that their encounters were also imaginary. He then returns to the farmhouse and enters the bathroom. Steam suddenly fills the room, and Ingrid's apparition appears behind him in the vanity reflection.
