The film is based on the true story of Johnny Frank Garrett (Devin Bonnée) who was convicted of the murder and rape of a 76 year old nun Sister Tadea Benz (Rebekah Turner). Garrett maintained he was innocent up to his death and cursed those who convicted him. After the state of Texas executed this mentally handicapped man, the people connected to his conviction began to die. The story follows one of the jurors, Adam Redman (Mike Doyle) who has figured out what is going on and works to clear Johnny's name.
The film is an extension of research done in the case. It speculates Garrett was innocent and how an innocent man could get convicted in the fine criminal justice system in the state of Texas. My guess, the super natural aspect was an add on.
At the end of the film is a list of people who died connected to the conviction...reminding me of that JFK assassination list. They also play a tape of his last words. Acting wasn't that great. Too much truth in the story to make a decent horror. Adapted from the documentary "The Last Word." Guide: Got one tapering phrase that could have a WTF. No sex or nudity.
