About
Recent widow Mandy is kidnapped and held for ransom. Her rich father-in-law is contacted for the money. Dressed only in a sheer nightgown, and bound and gagged, Mandy is forced to walk barefoot in the woods at night, is placed in the trunk of a car and is left in the shower to be drenched. And then, while waiting for the payment, the kidnapper begins to fall in love with the frightened girl. But that’s not all! He’s got a foot fetish that the girl tries to use to her advantage in an attempt to escape. And then his accomplice (Deana Enoches) comes between them. And the result is a deadly confrontation ending in murder!
