Zohra Lampert is Jessica, a woman who gets out of the asylum and heads-off to a farming life with her husband and friend after they've bought a farmhouse. Soon she's having all sorts of weird visions and hearing voices only to find out that the house may have an evil history (and that the townsfolk may be a band of vampires).
Unimpressive would sum this up and the only reason it's not a *½ rating (and it's close to it) is that director John Hancock does come up with one or two mild chills with some of the "visions" and the finale is somewhat effective. Other than that this is a slow-going time with a weak lead actress (who is constantly smiling, even in suspense moments), some stale dialogue and no real point for most of its running time.
The title is the best thing here probably (though the meaning behind it is kind of left up in the air at the end). Check out when the old men townsfolk bully the two men when they come to town to buy supplies and have a chuckle when one character compares a human death to a mole's.
Not worth it.
