Kirstie Alley's parents died in a car accident on the way to a Halloween party. Her mother was dressed in black face and her father was in a ku klux klan outfit.

Pearl: Classed as a horror, I suppose. Not really frightening but enjoyably creepy. Mia Goth is excellent. Apparently it's a prequel to another movie I haven't seen but I want to now.
