After a series of disturbing supernatural events in his home, Joel a young single father, comes to suspect that his young son may be possessed.

Editor's Verdict
"The movie is a standard horror/supernatural thriller focused entirely on an exorcism plot. There is no indication that the events occur during the Christmas season, or that the themes or iconography of Christmas play any role in the narrative."
