Just an average guy, Tom Stall (Viggo Mortensen) lives in Millbrook, Indiana, where he owns a diner. He is married to a lawyer, Edie (Maria Bello), and they have two children (Ashton Holmes and Heidi Hayes). Life changes for Tom after he stops a robbery at his diner by grabbing one of the criminal's guns and killing both robbers. During the ensuing news coverage, the media thrusts Tom and his family into the spotlight, and a one-eyed thug from Philadelphia, Carl Fogarty (Ed Harris), identifies Tom as a killer from 15 years ago and leaves for Millbrook to confront him.

But the monster rats are after her when she tries to recover the accounts. "Bobby"-A woman conducts a ritual to bring back her drowned son. It appears to have worked, but why is Bobby now after her? "He Who Kills"-In this continuation of the near-famous "Amelia" from the first trilogy, the police investigate the grisly death of Amelia and her mother and find the Zuni tribe doll. The doctor at the museum inspects the doll, which comes to life and possesses her–and here we go again.
