A tense psychological thriller about obsession and predatory fixation, where a young babysitter becomes the object of desire for multiple men, creating an atmosphere of surveillance and threat.

Jennifer is a lovely teen who has been hired to baby-sit the kids of Harry Tucker and his wife, Dolly. The Tuckers go to a party and proceed to get inebriated, with Mr. Tucker fantasizing about his beautiful baby sitter. Meanwhile, Jack, her boyfriend, and Mark, another guy interested in her, decide to spy on Jennifer at the Tucker house, with each young man also fixated on her.
