Bless the Child

Further evidence that Satanists are rarely anything but silly in the movies, this Kim Basinger vehicle is an exploitative rehash of the Bethlehem story with a
7-year-old girl (Holliston Coleman) in the Jesus part. Rufus Sewell plays the lead Satanist who wants to turn the girl to the dark side, and his knack for making one of his eyes look dead while the other nearly bulges out of his head somehow seems ludicrously right for the part.
