Paul and Nancy Lester are newlyweds back in the old neighborhood to visit a good friend who has disappeared. Investigation leads them to the center of a violent hate cult that is willing to murder any Jewish outsiders unfortunate enough to set foot on their turf.
Slick expressionistic lighting and fluid camera work augment this moralistic drama, as interesting for its techniques as it is for its universal message.
