Plot

The powers of darkness converge to claim the soul of a young girl who may have made a deal with the devil, who has come to collect. As a result of a devastating car accident that claims the life of her father, Michelle wakes up in a hospital in a state of amnesia—and her face is completely destroyed from the crash. With no recollection of the supernatural events before the accident that took her father, she has to figure out why people around her are mysteriously dying; she must try to remember if she has any chance of saving herself and her loved ones from this dark force. After her doctor perfectly reconstructs her face using family pictures as a guide, Michelle is discharged from the hospital and sent to a home that lodges young offenders, as she was deemed a delinquent before the car crash. On the very day she leaves the hospital, the janitor is murdered.

Michelle is troubled by a series of hellish nightmares and the Mephistophelean force that is killing the people in her life who seem to be committing suicide. A police detective named Joyner suspects that she is somehow responsible for the murders. Michelle desperately attempts to solve the mystery of her malevolent past in order to save herself and those around her before it is too late. Despite her gallant efforts, the legions of the damned eventually take her away.

There are many conspiracy theories surrounding the death of Diana, Princess of Wales on 31 August 1997. Official investigations in both Britain and France found that Diana died in a manner consistent with media reports following the fatal car crash in Paris. In 1999, a French investigation concluded that Diana died as the result of a crash. The French investigator, Judge Hervé Stephan, concluded that the paparazzi were some distance from the Mercedes S280 when it crashed and were not responsible for manslaughter. After hearing evidence at the British inquest, a jury in 2008 returned a verdict of "unlawful killing" by driver Henri Paul and the paparazzi pursuing the car. The jury's verdict also stated: "In addition, the death of the deceased was caused or contributed to by the fact that the deceased were not wearing a seat belt and by the fact that the Mercedes struck the pillar in the Pont de l'Alma tunnel rather than colliding with something else."
