The plot revolves around a neurotic aunt harboring incestuous feelings for her nephew who she’s raised since his parents died in an accident, her penchant for murdering people who she thinks gets in her way and her conflict with a latent case detective who’s trying to frame the teen for the murders because he thinks the kid’s gay.
