Hatters
Synopsis:
about a family (husband, wife and their fifteen year old daughter). the mother and Father are more than strange and the daughter is psychotic, funny, strange, but psychotic. She continues to poison visitors and the bodies continue to turn up even though the Father is constantly hiding them. Dad is trying to reason with mother how insane their daughter is, but daughter is a chip off the old mama's block so, reasoning here does little good. Dad, too, is not far behind the rest of the family.
