Seven years after Julia moved away from her domineering, evil twin sister, her uncle calls and informs her that her sister is dying. Feeling pressured, she goes to the hospital and finds out that her sister has contracted a rapidly disfiguring disease. The sister grabs her and threatens to do to her what she had done as a child-make Julia's life miserable. Of course, she flees. Julia's uncle also happens to be a priest and he seems determined to reunite the estranged sisters.Julia confides in her doctor boyfriend of how her sister had a large Rotweiller with which she used to terrify her. He's very supportive of how she feels and does his best to assure her that everything will work out for the best. Later, he finds out that he's very very wrong.The sister escapes from the hospital and a security guard is attacked and killed by a large dog. Is it the sister's pet? In a few days will be Julia's birthday-and her crazy sister wants to celebrate with her.But she's not the only crazy one. That Uncle of hers has been busy organizing a party that she will never forget.There was enough going on here that kept me interested and the movie had the feel of an Italian horror movie. It's also the first time I've ever seen a slasher movie in which the killer was a maniacal priest!
