Following the commercial success of Satan’s Slave, Norman J Warren next turned to science fiction. Barry Stokes (The Corruption of Chris Miller) plays a carnivorous, shape-shifting alien on a fact-finding mission to Earth. He discovers the rural house of a lesbian couple – played by Sally Faulkner (Vampyres) and Glory Annen (Felicity) – and the three become embroiled in a claustrophobic psychological drama of sex and violence.
