Home for the Holidays

Adult sisters Alex, Freddy, Jo and Chris Morgan have been estranged from their wealthy father Benjamin Morgan for nine years, he who they blame for their mother's suicide. Their relationship stems from Benjamin having had an affair with Elizabeth Hall, now Mrs. Benjamin Morgan. Some of girls could not tolerate not only what happened to their mother because of their father but that Elizabeth has taken her place. Freddy has turned to booze and pills to cope, while Jo has little to no thoughts of family in her partying ways. Chris, the youngest, is the innocent who can only take her sisters' words as to what was going on, she too young at the time to fully comprehend what was happening. Alex, as the oldest who they all turn to in times of need, and then the rest of the girls return to their isolated rural home on their now elderly father's request on Christmas Eve, he who has reinstated them in his will. Largely bedridden, he believes that Elizabeth is slowly poisoning him to death and he wants the girls to stop her in any way they can, including killing her if need be. Elizabeth is unaware of the true reason why Benjamin has convened his daughters at this time. His belief is partly due to the fact that Elizabeth was charged but acquitted of the murder of her first husband, he who died from what is officially listed as suicide from self-induced poisoning. What happens between the girls under the circumstance is largely affected by their unofficial "roles" within the family. Shortly after the girls' arrival, a torrential storm passes through the region, leaving them stranded as the one and only road to the property is washed out and the phone lines are knocked out. It then becomes clear to some that Elizabeth is not only trying to kill Benjamin, but them as well. Or are there other factors in play for the potentially deadly occurrences on the Morgan property as Benjamin, Elizabeth and the girls are stranded there together?
