Four researchers (ghost hunter Robert Quarry, psychic Brinke Stevens, skeptical Kathrin Lautner and Oliver Darrow) decide to investigate a supposedly haunted house with a history of murders that may have been committed by former mass murderer/rapist Andre Picard. A demon/ghost eventually possess them one by one, causing such things as Brinke driving a nail through her hand and Darrow having a sex dream with a redheaded succubus (played by Kaitlin Hopkins, the daughter of Shirley Knight). Carol Lynley is wasted as a nun and Erik Estrada is awful as a doubting priest who comes to the rescue a la THE EXORCIST.
The completely contrived plot is made damn near unbearable by the lack of gore, interesting characters, credible dialogue or anything else to make it worth watching. The demon/possession make-up is alright, but wasted, as is the great John Vulich/Everett Burrell designed demon creature at the end. Michelle Bauer however does liven things up a bit as a naked demon who strips out of her nun costume and tries to seduce Estrada by reminding him, "You knew your way around a p@$$y pretty good for a priest!" Look for a very obvious boom shadow on Brinke's face during the kitchen scene.
Score: 2 out of 10
