After a car crash which kills her father, Michelle (Sorell) wakes up in a hospital with amnesia. Dr. Barbary (Scrimm) informs her that she has months of reconstruction surgery ahead of her. Once she recovers, Michelle is sent to a place called Harmony House a place for troubled teens. Jackie (Diane Ayala Goldner) and Bisson (Rick Dean) runs the house and are clearly stealing from the few teens who are residing there. To make matters worse they are also inept as counselors. Michelle finds herself with a satanic Ouija board and a diary she can't make heads or tails out of. When fellow teens begin to die, the sleepwalking detective played by top billed Jeffrey Combs is called in to investigate and collect a paycheck. This sad, sad movie is tedious and stupid a mere five minutes into the running time and doesn't get any better. Annie Sorell looking around 29 years old is playing the teen and Scrimm and Combs are in it for the money. At least Scrimm isn't as obvious about it as Combs mailed in performance is. The dialog is pitiful, the acting wooden and the direction stale. C'mon, you know this movie. It's the one with too many flashbacks, burned up demons talking in hokey demon dialect, a twist ending you see coming 45 minutes ahead of time and no scares or jumps anywhere to be found. This gives straight to DVD features a bad name.
