A guy and his fiancee go to visit her friend and her friend's mother. On their way they come to a surreal scene on the side of the road in which a historical-looking figure is whipping his daughter as she's jumping rope to the "Ring around the rosary" song. She eventually stabs her father to death. When they get to her friend's house, the friend's mother explains that it was just an illusion they had seen before. Remarkably, the guy and girl buy into it, and a pathos-filled plot involving a cursed ring that mom and daughter try to foist on the girl plays itself out. I was really stunned to find out that Glynnis O'Connor, who I thought was a pretty decent actress, was absolutely atrocious in her role as the guy's fiancee.
