However, she quickly discovers that she has inadvertently joined a sinister cult led by a charismatic and manipulative leader, who has nefarious plans for all new members. Brenda is drawn into the cult’s enigmatic rituals and teachings, unaware at first of the true darkness that lies beneath the group's promises of personal growth and empowerment. As she spends more time with the network of followers, she becomes increasingly aware of a strange energy surrounding them that keeps her intrigued yet uneasy.
Brenda's initial curiosity soon turns into a desperate attempt to escape once she realizes the extent of the cult's influence on her life and their plans for her future. Unwilling to lose her autonomy and health, she seeks help from an old friend outside the group. However, leaving the situation proves difficult as the cult is vigilant and will stop at nothing to maintain control over its members. As Brenda struggles to break free, tensions escalate, and she must confront both external and internal conflicts. The deeper she dives into the twisted web of its activities, the more perilous attempts to unravel her experiences become as she fights for her freedom and sense of identity, realigning herself from within before it's too late.

Mind, Body & Soul: A trashy, incoherent thriller with Troma-esque vibes; lacking mystery, but bolstered by a solid Blu-ray A/V package and bonus features.
