Friday is International Girls Day because American Girls are just dolls. It's Loosen Up, Lighten Up Day. Too loose? It's Laugh like a Lunatic Day. It's Operating Room Nurse Day, and the perfect time for lunatic laughter is the operating room. And it's American Teddy Bear Day.

Socially inept, withdrawn young man told by social workers he'll be institutionalized if he doesn't make friends. Digging some up ensues.

I liked the drug treatment facility angle, at least until she gets kicked out. Then it becomes a typical demon possession story.
