Summary: A girl possesses special powers which lead people closer to God. An evil cult want her so they can use these powers for less desirable reasons...

Maggie O'Connor (Kim Basinger) is an ordinary single woman whose life is turned upside down by the sudden appearance of her long-lost sister Jenna, a drug addict who drops off her newborn daughter and disappears again. Maggie adopts the girl, Cody, as her own and raises her, forming a close mother-daughter bond. Years later, as Cody begins to exhibit some strange and otherworldly abilities, a number of local children are found brutally murdered--all children who were born on the same date as Cody. Suddenly Maggie's sister reappears, now married to the mysterious Eric Stark (Rufus Sewell), leader of the New Dawn Foundation, an unusual self-help movement. After the sinister Stark kidnaps Cody, Maggie must team up with police officer John Travis (Jimmy Smits) and friends from her church to stop Stark's diabolical plans and keep Cody safe. A religious horror movie in the tradition of ROSEMARY'S BABY and THE OMEN, with excellent (and creepy) special effects and a no-holds-barred battle between the forces of good and evil, BLESS THE CHILD depicts Maggie as a woman who will do anything to save the only daughter she's ever had. The film, directed by Chuck Russell, is based on the novel by Cathy Cash Spellman.
