The Touch of Satan
To Love Her Is To Be Cursed!
A slow-burn rural horror film that uses a doomed romance to explore a family cursed by witchcraft and dark history.
A murderous and decrepit old woman resides on a California walnut farm with her family. On a whim, a traveler named Jodie makes a brief side trip to the farm, where he meets and falls in love with Melissa, the proverbial farmer's daughter. Jodie and Melissa grow closer as Melissa begins to reveal the strange, dark history of her family.
