Cassadaga

Cassadaga - in which some girl experiences the loss of her sister or deaf best friend, and after an undeterminable amount of time, she goes to be the only student at a "school" in a plantation house for "art." The only "professor" seems to be her aunt or something, and there is some creepy guy, her "son," creeping around and masturbating in the middle of the day with the doors open. Gross. Well, it goes on forever, with some ghost of some girl trying to warn the dumb protagonist that some creepy guy who was sexually mutilated at the age of 8 (opening scene) is murdering women and puppetting their corpses. Also gross. Finally it ends. Thank god.

So, Wesley, from The Princess Bride, I mean, Cary Elwes, is friendly and charming to her, and obviously flattered by the attention of a young woman. Oh, she's 14. Yeah. So, she gets obsessed with him, and he encourages this friendship by talking to her, inviting her in, spending time with her, and taking her suggestions, like...
