This movie is awful. The dad gets his eyes punched out ... I envy him.

There has been a car accident. A father died in the accident. A girl suffered head trauma and severe facial injuries and has had to have massive reconstruction.

The girl was supposed to be a rebel / bad seed who was into satanic rituals but seems drastically changed now, she seems to be a nice girl. Because she no longer has any parents and has the bad rep, she is taken to an institution of sorts that is run by a corrupt couple.

The movie is has some of the worst acting I have seen in a long time, the editing is awful, the script is just as poor. The script relies way too much on exposition; characters just discussing the background of the story without any of the usual flashbacks and such.

This is the kind of movie that most people would say "Hey! I can do better than that!" and they'd probably be right.

Agreed on all points. I just watched this last night, only because Jeffrey Combs and Angus Scrimm had their names on the box. I was pretty sure their parts would amount to little more than cameos and that the movie only existed because someone managed to get those two attached to the production. (Sometimes it sucks to be right). All I can say is that the two real actors in this movie managed to remain far enough outside the action as to emerge relatively unembarrassed when the credits roll. Most people will probably forget they ever saw it, and we can all be thankful for that.

Ooo, baby, your domestic gross is SO BIG. That's how I know how GOOD you are!

look, i think the movie should get a 10 just for having Diane Goldner in it - what a body! i was hoping that her slinky dress would get cut off my satanic forces, but it was just not to be
