The film opens with a weird monologue about how the door to evil opens every 66 moon cycles and is allowed for 66 moments(?). And I am not sure how that fit into the film but apparently it does with a girls' birthday falling on 06-06.
Toby McClift (Peter Gadiot) grows up under the careful teachings of his father, a preacher who teaches Toby that "Killing evil is doing good" and that he must not love...ever. Meanwhile Toby believes that cowards miss out of life and of love as he has a rendezvous with Katy (Jytte-Merle Böhrnsen) in a cemetery. Things go horribly amiss as Toby sees a demon cart off his girl.
6 years later (about 66 lunar months?) Toby is released from a mental institution and takes a tutoring job at the Wallace manor and instructs a young girl Laura who looks just like Katy. There is also Lady Wallace (Jeanette Hain) who lives in the house with her consort Mortimer (Klaus Tange) who is the epitome of evil. Toby "knows" Laura must be Katy and wants to escape with her, but the odd events going on in the house as well as his weird dreams hinder his plans. Also Laura likes to play games.
The film would have made more sense if it was a simple witchcraft story and they left out the 66 lunar stuff and some aspect of Christianity never fully utilized. There are abstract scenes that are artistic dreams which caused me to scratch my head as Toby is also on meds. It is a film I would of enjoyed better if I wasn't trying to figure out what was going on.
This is more of a supernatural thriller/drama than a horror film.
Parental Guide: sex, nudity (Jytte-Merle Böhrnsen) No F-bombs that I recall.
