The Calling is a 2000 straight-to-video horror film directed by Richard Caesar. The film stars Laura Harris, Richard Lintern, Francis Magee, and Alice Krige. Following in the same vein as such classics as Rosemary's Baby and The Omen, The Calling is the story of Kristie St.Clair, the involuntary mother of the Antichrist, and possibly the only person who can stop the coming of a modern-day apocalypse. At first Kristie believes that she has the perfect life: Marc , her charming TV personality husband; Dylan , her beautiful young son; an enchanting house in the British countryside; a successful... new career But as time goes by she begins to suspect something's not right with her family. First, there's Dylan's increasingly violent behaviour, which includes the impaling of his pet guinea pig on a stake and his apathy towards the death of a friend. Kristie cannot understand how her son, who she had focused so much energy and love on since he was born, could have turned out so heartless.
