 Carrie Wells plays Rachel, a 9-year-old girl who is perfection itself - unless she s crossed or challenged. Several disturbing recent incidents have led Rachel s mother Christine (Blair Brown) to suspect that her child is a latent murderess. Upon discovering that she herself is the daughter of a convicted killer, Christine becomes convinced that sweet little Rachel is a "bad seed" - an inherent killer who feels no remorse because she doesn t know any better.
