The wife and mistress of the sadistic dean of an exclusive prep school conspire to murder him.
Superfluous remake of Henri-Georges Clouzot's classic which proves that a star cast and adequate production don't necessarily result into a great movie.
Halliwell (no star): "An appalling remake of Henri-Georges Clouzot's masterly Les Diaboliques; it is boring, badly made and miserably acted."
Maltin*1/2: "Top-notch cast founders in this amazingly monotonous (not to mention crude and embarassing) redo of the 1955 classic...This dreary film thoroughly trashes the memory of the original - and even the made-for-TV remakes!"
