After committing a minor crime, Eva is sentenced to hard time in a women's prison, where she's tormented by an evil matron, a brutal guard and a gang led by Killa Kim. But Eva finds her revenge in a box of South American worry dolls. Wishing on the tiny terrors at midnight, Eva wakes with enough power to take down the sadists in this supernatural revenge thriller.
'Full Moon/Charles Band trashfest set in a young female offender’s prison. Plot follows Eva, who was brought up in a trailer park. She ends up in a life of petty crime to help feed her daughter, only she gets caught and finds herself sent to Meredith Detention Center for Women. Bad mistake as it’s full of butch drug pushers, a sleazy sex video making prison guard and a governor from hell. During a family visit Eva is given worry dolls by her daughter, we are told you’re meant to tell them your worries and slip them under your pillow before going to sleep. Before going to bed Eva does this, only while sleeping one of the dolls climbs into her ear and takes control. The little doll now in her head gives her the power to fight off the prisons scum and its twisted authority. The draw back being the little bastard climbs right up into her forehead giving her a massive spot, it pop its own little head out while controlling her. Sure it’s junk, but if you’re in the mood for a light and downright silly 85 minutes this will more than fit the bill. It’s made very much in the comic/exploitation style of Frank (Basket Case/Brain Damage) Henenlotter. Highlight was its humorous Crying Game moment which had me in fits of laughter.
