Britt Ekland is like a Swedish Susan George (read: prettier).

A creepy preteen boy returns home from private school, and cleverly uses the suspicious circumstances of his mother's death to drive his new young stepmother insane. A pretty far out murder mystery with a few riveting scenes, including one where the boy manipulates a desperate Britt Eklund into stripping nude for his enjoyment in exchange for information. Sadly, the ending is sudden and stupid, Bianchi just couldn't resist throwing 3 senseless twists into the last 5 minutes.
