...have little new to say about those demons, but it has plenty to show, in images that mix beauty and horror, atrocity and comedy. Angels and red horses glide across the night sky. Mallory's family life is played as a grotesque sitcom that ends when her awful father (Rodney Dangerfield) is beaten to death and her weak mother is set ablaze.

Last are the babies, who may bear no wounds: they are tossed alive into the water, to drown on their way downstream.
