The Grim Reaper

“THE EXPLOSIVE MOTION PICTURE ABOUT SATAN'S DEMONIC ARMY!”

Synopsis

After her heretical son passes away in a stock-car racing accident, a mother begins to see visions of her boy escaping from hell, only to be dragged back. Can her God-fearing church-going second son get to the bottom of the situation and how it ties to eastern religion, his similarly heretical dad, and, quite possibly, The Devil?
