A perfect housekeeper with a murderous obsession.

Psychological thrills meet "haunted house" chills in The Promise. Spanish grand dame Carmen Maura has never been better - or creepier - as a fanatically religious housewife who forcibly frees herself from her abusive husband and becomes a nanny to the son of a wealthy family. But she becomes convinced that her mansion is haunted and that the child must be rescued - by any means necessary. It's "The Turn of the Screw" meets Women on the Verge of a Nervous Breakdown in this wildly engaging thriller.
