“What happens when a brother and a sister break the ultimate taboo?”

Angela (Sarah Nicholson) and her brother Peter (Eric Edwards) have always been as close as siblings could be. But when their relationship finally crosses the line from fraternal love to unnatural lust, Peter attempts to sever all contact with his sister by moving away and becoming a priest. Still hopelessly devoted to her brother and devastated by his abandonment of her, Angela begins thrusting herself into one horrifying experience after another, experiencing the physical manifestation of Peter’s guilt over their relationship. As Angela’s life continues to spin out of control, she and Peter each find themselves repeatedly crossing paths with the mysterious “fireworks man” (Wes Craven), whose devilish presence almost seems to hint that he may be manipulating their lives.

The second feature from horror legend Wes Craven (Last House on the Left), The Fireworks Woman ranks as his most structurally experimental effort—and his most controversial.
