Young cousins, Scotty and Skeeter, live a dusty, dry family
compound in South Texas. At the center of their world are
grandparents, Miz-Maw and Big-Paw who keep the family together with
a combination of love on the part of Miz-Maw, and a good dose of
respectful fear on the part of Big-Paw; fear now mixed with horror
since they've hidden in the thicket and witnessed the execution of
his swift and brutal justice.
When they find Skeeter's dog, Runt, gnawing on a decaying human
arm, they become ensnared in the reality behind folk legends of the
Brush-Bogey and the Conjurin' or Hoodoo Woman who is alleged to
cast spells and even kill with her Evil Eye.
Their gruesome discovery brings them into direct contact with
the living Brush Bogey who begins stalking them. Within days they
are taken to the shack of the old woman where she forces them to
carry out her horrific plan.
Since they've witnessed the murder committed by Big-Paw, they
are certain he is in involved in the death of the owner of the
decaying arm. Their vow to keep their silence places them at the
total mercy of the Conjurin' Woman and her abhorrent scheme.
