In the tradition of The Sixth Sense and The Omen comes this riveting supernatural thriller filled with spine-tingling chills and white-knuckle suspense. Academy Award Winner Kim Basinger stars as Maggie O'Connor, a single woman whose life revolves around her career as a nurse-until the surprise appearance of her sister Jenna (Angela Bettis) and Jenna's newborn baby girl, Cody. When Jenna suddenly disappears, Maggie is left to raise Cody (Holliston Coleman), an autistic child, by herself. But after Jenna returns with a mysterious cult leader (Rufus Sewell) and abducts Cody, Maggie discovers that the child possesses extraordinary powers that forces of evil have waited centuries to control. Together with a FBI specialist in occult-related crimes (Jimmy Smits), Maggie races to save the life of the innocent girl who may hold the key to save mankind... or destroy it. Costarring Christina Ricci and Ian Holm, Bless The Child is a thrilling offering for film fans.

I really enjoyed this movie as well as the book and all these nimrods on here writing trash don't know anything, I guess it makes them feel like their someone... The plot was good and it kept me and my girlfriend on the edge of our set..

I love this movie, apparently it received bad reviews when it was released due to scientology coming onto the scene in those days, and Kim Basingers performance was hated on. But honestly if you like a good verses bad spiritual battle type movie where the good are never abandoned or helpless you'll like this movie. It doesn't have one of those endings that leave you all messed up asking what the hell was that. It's a solid movie from its time, and to me Kims acting reminds me of old black & white films.

I watched it for free on Netflix and really liked it, They took it off though and Google Play is charging WAY too much to buy it. Wonder who sets the prices on movies and why...
