Pinker doesn't perish when his body is subjected to thousands of volts. Thanks to a deal he struck with the Devil just moments before his planned execution, the sadist is now able to take.
His surviving foster son Jonathan, who may have family ties with the monster he helps to capture, suffers further unimaginable tragedy when girlfriend Alison meets a similar grisly fate.
