When her husband dies in a tragic accident, widow Corrine Dollanganger (Victoria Tennant) takes her four children to the ancestral family home she fled before they were born. Locked away in the attic by their tyrannical grandmother (Academy Award winner Louise Fletcher), it falls to older and sister brother Chris (Jeb Stuart Adams) and Cathy (Kristy Swanson) to care for their younger siblings.

Better than the book. - Flowers in the Attic review by CP Customer

Spoiler Alert
19/06/2008

I first read the book when I was a teenager and it's sequels and prequels and rather enjoyed them. So I thought I'd give the film a try. I was not disappointed.

It's a little slow in places, but I did prefer the film ending over the book ending. Not bad for a lazy afternoon's viewing.
