The Little Girl Who Lives down the Lane Movie Review 1976

Engrossing, offbeat thriller about a strange 13-year-old girl whose father is never home, and who hides something--we won't say what--in her basement. Very young Foster is excellent, as are her supporters, including Sheen as the child molester who knows what she's hiding. Based on the novel by Koenig, who also penned the script.
