Plot

The movie begins with a boy named Michael (Jamal Grimes), a kid who has the heart for a girl named Jada (Vera Yell), but is always rejected because Jada is stuck with a gangster, Lorenzo (William L. Johnson), and if Michael comes close to her, he gets beat up by both Lorenzo and his homeboys, T-Bone (Corey Hampton) and Baby Boy (Rani Goulant). But Michael is secretly involved in black magic, and tries to bring a doll that he keeps called Killjoy to life. But the spell doesn't work quickly, as Michael is accidentally shot by Lorenzo when they were joking around with him.

A year later, Jada is now going out with a guy named Jamal (Lee Marks), who is just as nice as Michael is. Meanwhile, Lorenzo is now going out with a girl named Kahara (Napiera Groves), who is just like Jada. When Lorenzo leaves to have sex with her, T-Bone and Baby Boy go to get some ice-cream to get munchies, when the ice-cream man, who's dressed up like a clown (Angel Vargas) really sells drugs. Baby Boy and T-Bone hop in the truck, when suddenly, they end up in some abandoned building, far away from where they live. They split up to find a way out. Baby Boy finds a way out, but before he can make a run for it, he gets rammed into the wall by the ice-cream truck.

Meanwhile, T-Bone finds some pot lying on the ground and starts to smoke it, when suddenly, the pot starts to burn him, and his body vanishes, and ends up back to his hide-out, along with Baby Boy. Meanwhile, Lorenzo, after having sex with Kahara, hears something outside her apartment building, and goes outside to check. He finds the ice-cream truck and opens the door, and the ice-cream man pulls him in, and ends up at the abandoned building. After finding the ice-cream man, he shoots him to death, but the ice-cream man sucks up the bullets (a spoof of The Mask) and shoots the bullets out of his mouth, killing Lorenzo.

Meanwhile, one of Jada's friends, Monique (D. Austin), calls Jada, telling her that some guy (Arthur Burghardt) came in to her room and needs them to come over. The homeless man tells them that Lorenzo killed Michael a year ago, and explains that Michael was brought back to life by the Ice Cream Man, whose real name's Killjoy, the doll Michael has, and tells them that Killjoy just killed Lorenzo, Baby Boy, and T-Bone. Then he tells them that Killjoy/Michael can be killed by Jada, because the love of a young woman can destroy the evil in the heart. Before leaving, he tells them that they have to kill the doll the spirit of the ice cream man came from, and the ice cream truck is outside.

Still not believing what the homeless man said, they go inside the ice-cream truck to check it out, and they end up in the abandoned building, where they're confronted by T-Bone, Baby Boy, and Lorenzo, who souls' are under Killjoy's control and are now him accomplices. The trio start fighting the accomplices until they killed them. Then Killjoy comes out and knocks Jamal and Monique out. Then Killjoy fades away, and Michael fades in. Michael tells Jada that he did it for her. Jada, who desperately wants to stop Michael/Killjoy from killing, stabs Michael to death, and Michael fades away.

Jamal, Jada, and Monique are about to leave when Killjoy, Lorenzo, T-Bone, and Baby Boy appear behind them. Jada then remembers that they have to kill the doll. The trio run back into the ice-cream truck, where they end up in Michael's house, where the doll lies on the floor. The doll turns into Michael, but Jada continues to stab it. The earth starts to shake, and Baby Boy, T-Bone, and Lorenzo's souls are sucked into a portal. The trio then watch as Killjoy finishes off Michael, and the trio are sent back to Jada's room, where the homeless man thanks them, and vanishes, meaning he's an angel from heaven.

The trio decides to go out and eat, when they are confronted by Ray Jackson (Carl Washington), and Tamara (Dionne Rochelle), who are in Jada's English class. Ray says that he got into the club free because his brother owns the place, and his name is Killjoy. The trio then see that Ray turns into Killjoy, and Tamara turns into Lorenzo. Killjoy starts laughing maniacally at the trio, with Jada screaming "NO!", until Jada wakes up in bed, along with Jamal, indicating that the entire experience was a dream. Jamal tries to calm Jada down by going under the covers to perform oral sex on her, but then rises from the covers as Killjoy. The film ends with a shot of Jada screaming.
