Deadly Blessing (1981)


United Artists
Directed by Wes Craven
My rating: 2 stars out of 4
IMDb
(Blu-ray, Shout! Factory)

One day a farmer is killed by his own tractor under mysterious circumstances. His pretty young wife suspects the nearby religious cult run by his father is responsible. She has some girlfriends stay over to help her get over it, but they are tormented by nightmares or worse. One of them falls for a local boy and convinces him to leave the strict cult, then seduces him in her sports car. His fiance goes into a religious frenzy and takes revenge. A long, boring mess from Craven, with silly jump scares, gratuitous nudity, incoherent plot and an ending that belongs in a different movie altogether.
