Angela is haunted by guilt for the morbid bond with her brother Peter, who is destined to be a priest. In an attempt to free herself from this passion, she embarks on a descent into the infernal rounds of erotic love.

“What happens when a brother and a sister break the ultimate taboo?” And what was Wes Craven up to in the five-year gap between the release of his seminal THE LAST HOUSE ON THE LEFT (1972) and THE HILLS HAVE EYES (1977)? Come find out in “Abe Snake’s” THE FIREWORKS WOMAN. Angela and Peter are siblings who’ve loved each other a little too much since they were kids. As Peter tries to move on with his life by studying to become a priest, Angela finds herself falling deeper and deeper into a life of unholy lust.

This XXX film is an important part of film history, and should be celebrated and viewed as such. Any inappropriate behavior during this screening will not be tolerated and will result in permanent banishment from Nitehawk Cinema. Forever. Thank you!
