 A murderous TV repairman, Horace Pinker (Kane Hodder) is killing people in a small town left, right and center. He eventually finds the home of Lt. Parker , who is investigating his crimes, and savagely murders Parker s wife, son and daughter. His other son, Jonathan (Josh Hartnett) has a strange connection to Pinker through his dreams, and he directs his father to Pinker s business, where a small group of officers enter. Pinker escapes in a horrific spree, killing four officers and then targeting Jonathan s girlfriend, Alison. Another dream leads Jonathan and his dad to a residence where they catch Pinker in in the act of kidnapping. Pinker is arrested after a fight with Jonathan and sentenced to die in the electric chair. When executed, Pinker - who supposedly had given his soul to the devil in exchange for the power to come back as an energy source - takes over people s bodies and continues committing murders, until Jonathan devises a plan to bring Pinker into the real world, and then cut off his power source.
