Storyline: The
basketball coach Clyde and his wife Stephanie divorced a couple of
months ago and their teenage daughter Hannah and the girl Emily ‘Em’
live with their mother and spend the weekends with their father. One
day, Clyde stops his car in a yard sale and Em buys an antique carved
box and becomes obsessed with it. Em finds the hidden lock and releases
an evil spirit that possesses her. Soon Clyde discovers that Em has a
problem, but his annoying ex-wife and her boyfriend Brett do not pay
attention to him and get a restraining order against Clyde. Clyde seeks
out Professor McMannis and when he sees the box, he explains that it is a
Dibbuk Box, where a fiend is trapped inside. He also explains that the
box should not be open; otherwise the person will be possessed by the
spirit. Now Clyde travels to a Jewish community in New York and the
rabbi’s son Tzadok returns with him expecting to exorcise Em to save the
girl.
