SYNOPSIS
Detective MORGAN PAIGE WHITFIELD, 26 year old rookie, is surprised to learn that she has been assigned to a grueling murder case in Dallas, Texas. A female’s dismembered body has been found at Lake Dallas splayed on a long glass mirror. Her investigation is complicated by being partnered with chauvinistic senior detective DAVID LEWIS.
She soon learns that DR. JOHN BAXTER, a prominent plastic surgeon, has recently moved to Dallas with his partner MACK FLEMING to open the Derma Classic Center. His specialty: a very expensive “all natural” breast augmentation procedure. Baxter has reluctantly agreed to perform the special procedure on his own daughter JUSTINE.
Meanwhile, across town in the murderer’s basement of horrors, the unseen madman attatches the body parts of his victims to a plastic mannequin torso, convinced that it is in fact his mother.
Signs point to a possible connection with Dr. Baxter. Since Baxter’s daughter is on the high school cheer team, he wants Morgan to go in undercover, get to know the girls and find out information. As it turns out, Baxter is using live tissue for his breast augmentation surgeries. Mack is using the situation to his benefit as well: after delivering the severed breasts to Baxter, he can keep a coveted body part for himself. He is, in fact, the monster in the basement, determined to re-create his mother. Mack sees Morgan at the school and determines that she is the one whose heart can bring his ‘mother’ back to life. The next morning, Morgan hangs chained in a body hammock in Mack’s basement. Only Morgan’s wits and David’s pursuit can prevent her from becoming the next victim.
