A pregnant stranger (Angela Pleasence) spends the night with a couple (Cyd Hayman, Malcolm Stoddard) and leaves them a baby girl. They raise her as their own, but over the years the strange deaths of their children make them consider whether she is more than she appears.
"The Godsend" has a rather predictable story trajectory and not much of a payoff, but it is handsomely directed by Gabrielle Beaumont and dramatically riveting.
