The nightmares are always the same for Hollywood actress Laurie Cardell: she's back at the orphanage where she spent her childhood, being tortured by the head mistress, praying for an escape. But that's all in the past... until two brothers decide to bring the screen siren back to the scene of the crime. Daniel has been silently stalking Laurie for years, and when his psychotic brother Nathan is released from prison, no one expects the horror he brings. Daniel's misguided attempts to mend the wounds of a tortured youth resurrect Laurie's childhood nightmares and force Daniel to confront his own obsession, while Nathan's twisted logic takes on demonic proportions.

Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
This was one of several late-90s/early-2000s thrillers C. Thomas Howell made during his 'I'll take anything' career phase.
The 'obsessive male savior' trope here feels ripped from 90s erotic thrillers, but with zero budget and even less self-awareness.
