Bless The Child (2000)

Chuck Russell directs Kim Basinger, Jimmy Smits and Rufus Sewell in this horror conspiracy flick where a cult of devil worshippers try to take custody of a lady’s autistic niece.

A calendar that didn’t exist when the prophecy and apocryphal doomsaying was written. The old millennium switching over 25 years back introduced a swathe of new messiah / apocalypse B-movies. Stigmata. Dogma. End Of Days. Lost Souls. This was probably the most traditional. There isn’t a ton of terror and the CGI demons are rotten but the narrative is at least involving. It’s the end of the world as we know it and this is fine.
