Grandfather's orange farm shud have been the title.

Warning: Spoilers
I first saw this in the early 90s on a vhs.

Revisited it recently. The film disappointed me then as ther was nothing scary or anything horror bah it but aft revisiting, i am surprised at the end revelation, which is dark n harrowing.

The effects are really bad, a cop gets stabbed repeatedly but we dont get to see the wounds.

The locations are picturesque, the Victorian house, the orange farm, the tall trees, etc are all lovely.

The film has many absurdities.

The woman somehow always gets an upper hand while chasing the kids, the hospital sneaking out scene is absurd, there is a dead cop, a bullet injured man n missing people but the authorities are shown as lax.

At one scene a woman is shown stuffed in a refrigerator, then later tied in a car, then being wrapped n pulled as a dead body, in the beginning, she is shown strolling in the middle of the road, somehow she pops up everywhere and in the end, nothing is explained what happens with all the characters apart from the harrowing revelation.

The grandmother never pamapers the kids but the tagline refers about pampering. The movie is shot less in the house and more in the orange farm.
