No one ever really gets to see Dominique Dunne in all her glory as an actress, probably because all her really known performances were in big productions(Poltergeist; Diary of a Teenage Hitchhiker, etc.) which she had a smaller role. This film, a film she holds entirely on her shoulders with as much capability as the next Meryl Streep, deals with a young Polly Ames(Dominique Dunne) who has come home from boarding school. and discoverers strange happenings at her father's owned hotel. Naturally, her instinct tells her to find out what is going on. Family film succeeds in putting together a mood setting film, that everyone can enjoy. Dunne is seen here in her first really big role, and she plays it with suave and smooth like a pro. Great locations and camera angles, and of course, Dominiques big brown eyes are the eye candy, while kids will enjoy the "bump in the night" feel this film has to it. Hope this film gets a DVD release soon!
