Movie description:

A young woman is hired by a wealthy but sinister man to tutor his two children at the family’s isolated estate. When the woman gets there, she finds that the two children are not quite what they seem to be – in fact, they are possessed by the spirits of the evil Quint and his lover.

This film offers yet another film version of Henry James classic supernatural thriller. It all begins when an aristocratic uncle hires a nanny to watch over his innocent niece and nephew who are living in a large country manse. Soon she discovers that the poor children have been possessed. She also finds herself victimized by her own obsession. Tragedy follows when she tries to free the children from evil.
