One of the players, a young man named Adam (Thom Haverstock), is the descendant of a long line of men who are all cursed by the devil.

While working at the community college theater performance, a strange magician appears and puts a curse on Adam, forcing him to remember the fate of his ancestors and to make him believe that he really is a warlock.

Increasingly, Adam is unable to determine the difference between fantasy and reality and believes that, as a warlock, he is on a quest to kill various people.

As the bodies pile up, the local police are baffled and no one suspects that Adam is a deranged serial killer being commanded to kill by the devil.

Following its 1983 theatrical release, the film was later issued on VHS by Media Home Entertainment, and then licensed to budget label Video Treasures.
