Arrogant judge Stefan Mortensen suffers a fatal stroke, leaving him partially paralyzed and in a nursing home. Resisting the staff and estranged from his friendly roommate, Mortensen soon encounters a seemingly mild-mannered lodger, Dave Creeley. He secretly terrorizes the house with a sadistic game called The Jenny Penn Rule, using his demented doll as an instrument of cruelty. What begins as child abuse quickly escalates into more sinister and disturbing incidents. When Mortensen’s pleas to the team go unanswered, he takes it upon himself to put an end to Creeley’s terror.
