Dee Snider, of the
Twisted Sister heavy metal music group, made his debut as a screenwriter and producer with this horror film, directed by
John Pieplow. A psycho on the Internet uses the handle, "Captain Howdy" (Snider), an obvious reference to the unseen Ouija board spirit in
The Exorcist (1973). After the abduction of his daughter Genevieve (
Linda Cardellini), detective Mike Gage (
Kevin Gage) is on the case, joined by detective Christian (
Brett Harrelson). Kidnapper Captain Howdy is eventually captured and sent off to the asylum. Released four years later, Howdy is hanged by a vigilante mob led by redneck Jackson Roth (
Robert Englund). Reborn as Carleton Hendricks (Snider), Howdy turns against the vigilantes, kidnaps Genevieve a second time, and once again confronts Gage. Snider also contributes an original heavy-metal tune for the closing credits.
