**SPOILERS** Going along the same theme as the "The Omen" the British horror flick "The Godsend" is about an unsuspecting couple Alan & Kate Marlowe who end up adopting a child, whom they named Bonnie, that was left practically on their doorstep by this strange and somewhat deranged woman. It's not that long when the Marlowe's take little Bonnie in as their fifth child that three of their own children, Bradly Davy & Sam, end up dying under mysterious circumstances. What's even stranger about the Marlowe's children's dying is that little Bonnie was at the scenes of every one of their deaths!
It's Alan who at first becomes suspicious of Bonnie having something to do with his and Kate's children deaths which has him try to find out just who Bonnie's natural mother-the strange one-really is. While trying to get to the bottom of Bonnie's true parents Alan comes down with an almost fatal illness that renders him sterile. At the same time Kate who was pregnant with Alan's child had a mysterious fall down a flight of stairs that caused her to lose her unborn baby!
***SPOILERS*** It soon becomes very apparent to Alan that Bonnie is not the sweet and cuddly child that she makes herself out to be and tries to have her taken away from him and Kate by the town's social services. It's later that Kate in having very strong feelings for Bonnie threatens to divorce Alan if he tries to go through with his plan. It's when the much smaller Bonnie turns her evil attention towards the Marlowe's last surviving child Lucy that even Kate finally realizes what a monster in Bonnie the Marlowe family has in its mist. But by then it's too late for Kate or even Alan, who already knows just what Bonnie is all about, to stop her!
The shocking ending of the movie has really nothing to do with Bonnie but her what seems like spaced out and odd-ball mother who really isn't all that mysterious at all. She's been doing this, pawning off her new born children, for some time. And as the movie comes to an end we as well as a shocked down to his socks Alan see that she's got another Bonnie in the wings for some unsuspecting couple to raise and end up suffering the very same fate that he and and his wife Kate are experiencing right now!
