Inner Demons

Carson Morris was once an exemplary student, known for her academic prowess. However, as she slipped into addiction, this once-promising life began to unravel, marking the start of her struggles.

In a bid to reclaim her life, Carson enrolls at a prestigious Catholic high school, hoping for a fresh start. But the pressures mount, and she finds herself seeking solace in harmful substances.

Feeling vulnerable yet determined, Carson agrees to let a documentary crew film her journey through rehab. This decision puts her life on display and subjects her struggles to public scrutiny.

Upon arriving at the clinic, Carson quickly becomes the target of derision by other patients who mock her claims of demonic possession. This ridicule exacerbates her feelings of isolation within the facility.

Despite the mockery, Jason, a kind-hearted production assistant, begins to connect with Carson. His understanding nature helps her feel less alone as they explore the unsettling occurrences surrounding her.

As tensions rise within the facility, Carson's unstable behavior culminates in a violent outburst directed at Jason. This incident alarms both the clinic staff and the documentary crew, raising concern for her well-being.

The show's producer, Suzanne, grows increasingly anxious over Carson's condition and pressures Dr. Dean Pretiss to take drastic measures. However, he hesitates to call an exorcist, fearing for Carson's mental health.

The next day, Carson reveals a harrowing truth: Jason had sneaked drugs into her system while she was sedated. This betrayal leads to her dismissal from the clinic and cuts off her family's consent for filming.

Determined to understand Carson's situation, Jason visits her home to talk with her disapproving parents. He soon learns about the relentless bullying Carson faced, which led her down a dark path.

Jason returns to the Morris home with the film crew, but the situation escalates when they hear terrifying screams from upstairs. Feeling a sense of urgency, Jason takes it upon himself to confront the supernatural forces at play.

As Jason attempts a solo exorcism, paranormal forces begin to disrupt the electricity in the house. The atmosphere becomes increasingly menacing, signaling that Carson's possession is deepening.

In a horrifying climax, Carson succumbs to her possession and turns violently against her family, revealing the full extent of her torment. Her mother's guilt over Carson's treatment becomes tragically clear during this confrontation.

In a moment of complete despair, Carson's father shoots her, believing she is beyond saving, before taking his own life. This heartbreaking event illustrates the devastating impact of their struggles and misunderstandings.

As he grapples with the events unfolding around him, Jason cannot escape the darkness that has enveloped the Morris family. In a chilling conclusion, he realizes that he's been irrevocably changed by his bond with Carson.

In the final moments, Jason decides to turn off the camera, marking the end of the documentary. The act signifies not only a closure to the filming but also a recognition of the profound and tragic connection they shared.
