 
A
married couple named Karen (Faye Grant)
and Gene (Michael Woods) have tyhe
American dream and everything they have
ever wanted except for a child.
The adopt a baby girl named Delia and
fall in love with her but however, Karen
gets a scratch mark by Delia and a nun
named Sister Yvone (Megan Leitch) tries
to tell the couple about her but she is
always warded off by Delia.
Years later little Delia (Asia Vieira)
causes destruction wherever she goes and
people die that are near her.
Karen begins to question Delia and her
attitude towards her which soon turns to
fear as she finds out that she is
pregnant as well and wants no involvement
from Delia in order to save her unborn
child from her evil grasps when she is
discovering that her adopted daughter is
the next antichrist.
Almost like a
remake of the original classic although
it does follow after part 3 but this time
its with a little girl who's the
antichrist instead of a boy.
It's enjoyable and a great film but of
course doesn't have that creepy edge to
it since it's only a TV movie but I'd
highly recommend it to anyone who enjoys
TV movies.
It's still disturbing during most scene's
and well done too.
The acting is very
well done by a good cast. Faye Grant who
played the concerned mother was excellent
in every way with her part in it showing
good frights and emotions and good solid
energy to all of this.
Michael Woods seemed to do quite
well too as the sympathetic father and
proves he can make his role come to life
that way.
Supporting actor Michael Lerner
stood out well as an ex-cop and can
really deliver.
Madison Mason played a
nice doctor in the film and seems very
strong with his lines in the film.
Ann Hearn truly came across as very
mysterious and strange with her part as
the Nanny trying to discover Delia. You
kinda wonder if she is good or evil in
this film and no one could do it better
for this flick.
Of course child actress Asia Viviera
was perfect playing the devil's daughter
Delia York as she performed with great
nasty and disrespectful attitude and yet
trying to put on a good girl act too and
is convincing at doing both and could go
far with her career proving to be
versatile.
Joy Coghill was phenomenal with her
role as Sister Francesca showing great
frights to her part and can really play
someone fanatical too.
We have two
directors for this one which are Jorge Montesi
& Dominique Othenin-Girard.
One is plenty for a TV movie like this.
They do a good job in this remake but TV
movie directing does not meet up to
motion picture type directing for many
reasons.
We have an impressive moment with
supporting actress Megan Leitch
as a Nun walking away outside after the
family adopted the baby and being
emotionally sad then getting scared after
hearing the churchbell ringing and
running inside. We see a nice shot on
small actress Susan Chapple as
Mother Superior standing there and then
opening her arms to Leitch which almost
looks like a sign that something evil
will happen.
There's a great intense moment between Chapple
as she strikes Leitch which
looked great and a bizarre moment between
their argument happens.
We see a good moment on Faye Grant playing
hide and seek with young child actress Rebecca
Cynader as Delia at 2 years old
which looked like a good mother and child
time together. Then we have a great shot
on a truck rolling by and Cynader
running down the hill while this vehicle
is rolling by and she keeps running
towards the street and Grant
screaming for her along with a rottweiler
running towards the child as all of this
had great timing.
We spot a nice and frightened expression
on Leitch's face while looking
at another child actress Brianne
Harrett as Delia on her 4th birthday
party as this little girl really knew how
to show an icy stare and then biting the
head of her doll. This was very cringing.
There was an effective fighting scene
between Asia Viera and
supporting child actor James Sherry
as she strikes him in the face with her
lunchbox and he hits her which looked
well choreographed.
The dialogue between Viera and Michael
Woods looked believeably innocent
when they discuss her bullying in school.
Grant looked great lying on a
hospital bed having a hard time spitting
out her words after the tragedy she say.
She also reacts well by being in pain
while being pregnant and fearing on
losing her child as it keeps you in
suspense wondering if the child will be
born.
Megan Leitch was superbly directed
in a preaching church holding a
rattlesnake as the shots on her and the
snakes looked really scary and does react
terrifically when she is attacked by
them.
Grant shows nice aggressions walking into
the doctors office and stabbing Mdison
Manson's hand but his reactions to the
pain could've been more realistic.
There is a nice shot on Grant crying
while pointing a gun on Vieria as she
shows a nice sad expression as if why do
you wanna kill me?
The music composed
by Jonathan Sheffer is not dark
sounding like in the other films and very
TV movie like but still it's passable but
not horror sounding. There are nice
action sounds to it.
