Inner Demons

In a secluded rehab clinic, a troubled teen named Carson Morris agrees to be filmed for a documentary that promises to capture her struggle with addiction and a chilling belief that something far darker resides within her. The clinical setting, sterile yet suffocating, becomes a stage where personal demons and literal ones seem to blur, setting a tone that oscillates between stark realism and unsettling dread.

Among the crew is a sympathetic production assistant, Jason, whose curiosity quickly turns into a personal investment. As he watches Carson’s erratic behavior and hears her insistence that she is possessed, his role shifts from observer to confidant, hinting at a connection that could pull him deeper into the mystery. The show’s producer, Suzanne, pushes for sensational moments, while the clinic’s physician, Dean Pretiss, remains cautious, wary of the line between mental health treatment and supernatural explanations.

The world of the film is one where ordinary institutions—schools, families, medical facilities—are haunted by unseen forces and whispered rumors of exorcism. The atmosphere is thick with tension, amplified by the ever-present cameras that promise both exposure and containment. Every interaction carries the weight of hidden trauma, and the presence of a camera crew adds a voyeuristic edge that makes each confession feel both intimate and unsettling.

As the documentary unfolds, the audience is left to wonder whether Carson’s torment stems from the ravages of addiction, the influence of a hostile social environment, or a true malevolent presence. The film balances psychological horror with the eerie possibility of something otherworldly, inviting viewers to question what lies beneath the surface of a seemingly ordinary recovery program.
