    Storyline

    Edit
    Claris Manning is an alcoholic invalid who tyrannizes her children when her youngest daughter, Carol, invites her family to spend a Christmas week together. They include Matthew, a crackpot clergyman; Michael, a misogynist businessman whom is sexually attracted to Carol, but abusive to his wife Susan; Margaret, the eldest daughter, whom is currently dating a local tough named Jonathan; and Buster, the youngest son from a military school whom brings over his gay lover Drew. Meanwhile, the two live-in servants, Peter and Jessica, plot to kill Mrs. Manning to gain her money for themselves. But an unseen killer soon begins killing off all the characters present for their debauched lifestyles they have led to since leaving the household. —matt-282

    • Quotes

      Buster: I'm sorry for yelling at you.

      Claris Manning: No, you're not! Tell me the truth. Why did you come here into my room?

      Buster: I want to know how much I'll inherit when you die.

      Claris Manning: I haven't made a will.

      Buster: Don't you think that's dangerous? Someone in this family might kill you. Then what would you do?

      Claris Manning: I know what I am doing. I'm a very shrewd cookie.

      Buster: What do you mean by that?

      Claris Manning: You'll lay awake tonight, trying to figure that out.

    Watch the Milligan sample reel in the extras
    If you really want to see what Milligan intended, skip the main film. It is cluttered with boring softcore inserts that are tedious. Seeds is an interesting film about a dysfunction family gathered for Christmas as the home of an almost insane Matriarch (Maggie Rogers) One of the family is killing off the family. It's a crude but fascinating look at palpable hate and loathing. There is not one character who is a positive person the viewer can like. One character, Carol, is interestingly played by Candy Hammond, who was briefly married to Milligan. As mentioned, the producers, concerned the film was too dark and not sexy enough, all true, inserted the straight, boring softcore stuff. It doesn't come close to matching the characters. As mentioned, go to extras and watch the Milligan print; you'll see a unique film that's not for all tastes but is a great sampling of Milligan's art.
