***SPOILERS*** Cincinnati head shrinker or psychiatrist Dr. Claire Parker, Mariel Hemingway,has been having trouble with her rambunctious and out of control teenage daughter Emily, Maggie Castle, who hasn't been keeping up with her school work or grades. It turns out that Emily has been hanging out with suspended from school pot head Tony Roth, Morgan Kelly, who not only turned her on to the happy feeling weeds but is also supplying her with them. That's nothing compared to when escaped from a mental hospital John Walter, Jonathan Watton, came on the scene. John has had the hots for Emily for years even since that cold Christmas morning when he spotted her from afar in a tight and sexy green sweater during the Christmas gift opening ceremony. Since then like a bloodhound he's been following Emily all over the state of Ohio and parts of Kentucky just to get a chance to open up a friendly conversation with the girl.
Finally deciding to use the excuse about his need for psychiatric help about his being shy with girls John gets an appointment with Emily's mother Dr. Parker in hoping she's formerly introduce him to her daughter Emily and take it from there! The first time that John gets to see Emily at a meeting of Cincinnati shrinks he makes a complete a** of himself which really hurts his already low self confidence. It's then that John in an effort to win Emily back that he decides to be her night in shinning armor by watching her, again from afar, every movement to see that nothing bad happens to her. During all this time Dr. Parker who's treating John has no idea that she's in fact emboldening him in his actions against her daughter by unconsciously urging him to break out of his shyness and go for it: Her daughter Emily Parker!
****SPOILERS**** Well John does go for it but goes a bit too far in murdering Emily's pot head boyfriend Tony and then goes after her mom Dr. Parker for not getting her daughter Emily, who by then was on the outs with her, to be together and in love with him. By then John besides having murdered Tony and his aunt, earlier and off screen, for sexually molesting him when he was a little boy has completely gone full fledged psycho with him determined to murdered both mother and daughter, Dr. Parker & Emily, and cover up his crime by burning the house down that their in together along with them. We do get the typical indestructible psycho act by John who seems to be immune to bullets. He keeps getting up every time he's gunned down by Dr. Parker who earlier tried to help him. But the end finally did come when instead of blasting John one bullet at a time Dr. Parker unloaded her entire payload of shells into him putting him out of commission for good.
