During a secret society initiation, a girls-only event, one of the new members is killed in a game of Russian roulette. Years go by, and the remaining members are invited to a reunion at a lavish estate belonging to the father of the killed girl.

Actress Claudia Jennings, who played Judy in the film, was a Playboy Playmate (1969-1970) who died a few years after "Sisters" in an automobile accident, leaving a short-lived but notable drive-in starlet legacy.
