Hell hath no fury....... - valkyrie49
A fascinating period piece set in a rural girls school in the Old South during the Civil War, with Clint at his most devastating as a wounded Union soldier. One by one he seduces them, from the mature headmistress to her virginal assistant, from the lustful Carol to the innocent Amy. Some of them have an interesting past, seen in flashback, and all of them have an interest in Johnny. After watching this flick you'll wonder, who is "The Beguiled"?
