Geraldine Page portrays a woman, who finding herself penniless after her husband dies, comes up with a horrific way to maintain her lifestyle. She hires maids and then kills them for their life savings. Then, she buries their bodies in her garden and plants a pine tree on them. Eventually she has a lot of pine trees around her house. Well, one time she kills the wrong maid-because her previous employer (who wants to hire her back) suspects foul play. Ruth Gordon (ROSEMARY'S BABY) is Alice, who goes undercover as the new housekeeper. But before she can prove to anyone that the lady is a killer, she's murdered! And then Page goes after several of the other people involved in the deception, her new next door neighbors who she tries to kill by putting their cottage on fire. It's a creepy movie and Page gives a great performance as the deranged woman.
