Warning: Spoilers
Eriq La Salle directs, writes and stars in CRAZY AS HELL. A well known psychiatrist, Dr. Ty Adams(Michael Beach)comes to Sedah State Mental Hospital with an around the clock film crew to shoot a documentary about his non-traditional approach in treating mental illness. Dr. Delazo(Ronny Cox)runs the institution and seems to be the only one with lack of confidence in Adams. Adams appears to be helping some of the self-destructive patients until the day a mystery man(La Salle)voluntarily checks himself into the hospital. The man claims to be Satan and wants to know why the world blames him for everything that goes bad instead of blaming God. Satan becomes the one to pull Adam's chain and forces him to deal with his own innermost turmoil. Comedian Sinbad plays an orderly that is contently wanting a moment of Dr. Adams's time.

Also in the cast are: Jane Carr, John C. McGinley, Tracy Pettit and a vivacious Tia Texada that will make you stand up and take notice. La Salle, who made a name for himself as Dr. Benson on TV's ER, is more than just focused...he is dynamic. You need to be in the right mood for this slightly dark drama.
