After witnessing the brutal murder of his family as a young child, Jack Brooks (Trevor Matthews) is left with an unquenchable fury that he is constantly fighting to control.
Now working as a plumber and struggling in a relationship with his girlfriend Eve (Rachel Skarsten), Jack's life has become a downward spiral. One night, Jack attempts to fix Professor Crowley's (Robert Englund) old, rusted pipes, but unknowingly awakens an ancient evil. Lured by this demonic power, Professor Crowley discovers a monstrous black heart that quickly forces its way inside of him. Possessed by the heart now beating in his chest, the Professor starts a slow, gruesome transformation. It is at this moment that Jack realizes he can't run from his past, and quickly discovers the true purpose of his inner rage.
Canadian Connection: Filmed in Ottawa. The director, screenwriter and most of the cast members are Canadian.
An excelllent movie harking back to the days of such comedic horror movies as Evil Dead and Army of Darkness. This movie was also a great chance for Robert Englund to break away from the "Nightmare on Elm Street" persona into something completely different. The only thing missing was Paris Hilton getting horribly murdered. This is one everybody should see. They'll enjoy it.
