简介：The film tells the story of single mother “Kara” (Elizabeth Roberts) who moves from New York to the quiet countryside with her two children for a job opportunity she can’t afford to turn down. The family moves into their humble new guesthouse. Kara begins her work as a private nurse to “Walter,” (Bruce Davison) a man stricken with multiple sclerosis and an appraiser of rare antiquities with a secretive past. Her teenage son, Jesse, (Arman Darbo) is unhappy about this most of all. Losing his friends and moving to the middle of nowhere hasn’t made his job of looking after his little sister, “Cambria,” (Chloe Perrin) any easier. Doom precedes them. “Akiba,” (Treva Etienne) a shady international associate of Walter’s, brings with him a mysterious relic of ancient origin. “Kara” encounters run in with a local sheriff played by genre veteran actor Denise Crosby. All too quickly they discover the relic contains more than just legends. Inside, waits a terrifying creature born of ancient darkness and pure instinct…a pre-historic cave Spider unlike the modern world has ever seen.
简介：影片根据加拿大作家Jane Rule创作的小说“Desert of the Heart”改编而成，背景设置于美国许多地方不允许离婚的1950年代。主人公之一是35岁的英文教授薇薇安，她为了离婚来到法律相对宽容的内华达州雷诺市，暂住在一间农场为离婚官司和流程做准备。严肃的薇薇安因此结识了农场主弗兰西丝的继女凯伊，凯伊比她年轻10岁，平时在赌场打工，是一个对取向不做掩饰的活泼女性。尽管薇薇安意识到自己被凯伊所吸引，她还是对开始这段关系有所顾虑，不确定自己是否做好了和同性在一起的准备。与此同时，被继母弗兰西丝依赖着的凯伊则意识到：薇薇安就是她等待已久的命中注定之人。1985年，成本仅35万美元的《爱的甘露》正式公映，成为了第一部大规模公映的女同爱情长片，它的美好、幽默和对女性情欲的坦荡表达不仅征服了无数观众的心，也让很多人意识到两个女性的爱是可能的，而且并不总以悲剧结尾。这部叫好又叫座的先锋作为日后涌现的更多女同作品铺平了道路。
