In a dilapidated rural mansion, the last generation of the degenerate, inbred Merrye family lives with the inherited curse of a disease that causes them to mentally regress from the age of 10 or so on as they physically develop.

Viewing Notes
This was my next film at The Massacre and Jack Hill was there to introduce and to a Q&A afterward. Was super excited to see this on the big screen having seen it in recent years on TV. Such a fun movie and better with a crowd. Carol Ohmart is quite something. Love the Wolfman joke with Chaney.
