Plot Summary
Newly-divorced doctor Sarah Cassidy and her 17-year-old daughter Elissa move to a small, upscale suburb. They are disturbed to discover the house they are moving into is on the same street as the house in which a girl named Carrie-Anne Jacobson killed her parents four years prior. She fled and was never seen again, leaving her brother Ryan as the sole survivor. Ryan now lives alone in the house and is hated by his neighbors; Bill Weaver, a local police officer, is his only supporter. Elissa’s relationship with her mother becomes rocky when she starts seeing Ryan against Sarah’s wishes.
Ryan confides in Elissa that Carrie-Anne fell from a swing when they were little; he was supposed to be watching her while their parents were getting high on drugs. The brain damage from the accident made her extremely aggressive, leading to their parents’ murder. Ryan is revealed to be secretly taking care of a now-grown Carrie-Anne in a hidden room in the house. Carrie-Anne escapes and approaches a couple in a car while brandishing a kitchen knife. Ryan accidentally kills her while trying to hide her. Grieving, he goes to a diner, where he meets a kind waitress named Peggy Johns.
One night, a group of unruly high school boys pick a fight with him; he breaks one of their legs in self-defense and flees. Elissa drives to his house, finds tampons in the garbage, and discovers the secret room. She is attacked by Carrie-Anne, revealed to be Peggy. Ryan restrains “Carrie-Anne” as Elissa finds blue contact lenses and Peggy’s wallet in the kitchen. Ryan has kidnapped Peggy and attempted to make her look like his sister. He knocks Elissa unconscious. Elissa wakes tied to a chair. Ryan reveals that Carrie Anne didn’t kill their parents. She had actually died during the accident on the swing set.
