High school underdog Hoax Wilmoth fills up the idle hours in his seedy little hometown fending off the local leather-jacketed thugs, avoiding his overbearing, religious fanatic mother and dreaming of a date with the trailer park temptress, Suzie. But his quietly desperate life takes a terrifying turn when his cousin Spike introduces him to an unusual new hobby-phoning in for his "horrorscope." Instead of slightly kinky astrological predictions he's expecting, Hoax is hooked up with a compellingly hideous demonic force that slowly begins to overtake his entire life. Now there's more than just the phone bill to pay for anyone and everyone who has ever dared to cross the neighborhood nerd.
