The police arrive on the scene to find a 12-year old hanging in the closet, a 17 year old has taken an overdose, a male fiance has multiple stab wounds and is blocking the door to the bathroom which holds the mom who has self-inflicted stab wounds and the knife.  The detective is sure the man is the reason for the whole scene, but can he prove it?  A dysfunctional family in Georgia, who lost their father two years previous, is joined by Dennis Rask.  Carolyn, the mom, is a drunk and on meds for depression and insomnia.  Elizabeth, the 17 year old is into Goth and anything that will tick of her mom.  Emily is 12 and just wants love.  Elizabeth is her protector from her hateful mother who spends all her efforts letting both children know they are hated.  Rask seems to be a gift from God.  He makes Carolyn treat the girls better and shows them  love.  However, he is just the devil in disguise.  He uses the money he won in the lottery (which he keeps secret), sex, compliments, and implied threats to work his way into the family.  John takes us on an evil trip.  Well done!
