Following the mysterious death of her twin sister, Alison (Lisa McGuire) heads to the town of Windsor Lake, WI to find out more info. She immediately meets up with Simon Proctor (Barnaby Spring, if that is your real name), the guy who was dating her sister and letting her lease his house (nice boyfriend). Proctor is a famous author and his family has some sort of curse on it. Whatever. I've often wondered how odd little movies like this get made. It is well shot, features decent actors and the storyline has some dark Lovecraftian family secrets and catacombs a la "The Lurking Fear." But the end result is so boring and makes little sense. You get colonial flashbacks, people burned alive in a church, a Minotaur and a final shot that I am sure the director has to explain to everyone who watches it (I'm still waiting, Mr. Savegar!). The production was kind enough to splurge on getting Dan Haggerty for two scenes as the town's medical examiner. The VHS box calls this THE INHERITOR, but the on screen title is just INHERITOR.
