THE GATHERING stars Christina Ricci as Cassie Grant, who is backpacking through rural England when she's hit by a car. This results in her staying with the family of the woman who struck her. Strange things begin happening, seemingly related to an ancient -and quite mysterious- first century, Christian church that has been unearthed nearby.
Upon recovering from her injuries, Cassie ventures out into the local town. Why are people now watching and following her? The longer she stays, the more bizarre and chilling it all becomes.
This is a solid supernatural horror-thriller, with some creepy twists. The unexpected ending ties it all up nicely. Ms. Ricci is really good in this, proving once again that she could very well be the Barbara Steele of her generation...
