Thomas, Martha viennent de vivre une tragédie, la perte de leur enfant. Pour rester unis, survivre à ce drame, ils décident de se ressourcer en revenant dans le village d'enfance de Thomas en Irlande. Mais alors que le couple se reconstruit peu à peu, ils vont accueillir chez eux une petite fille orpheline de 7 ans, très perturbée, presque autiste par un concours de circonstances étranges. Des mauvaises langues dans le village pensent même que la petite fille est une incarnation du mal, ce que refuse de croire Martha... (Wild Side Video)

If you’ve already watched Orphan and Case 39, you don’t need bother with The Daisy Chain because you won’t get anything better, but you could still watch it, it isn’t bad. A classic story about an unusual evil little girl, a dumb mum and a sensible dad. The atmosphere of rural Ireland is nice, what is not nice is the shortage of tense moments and the end without an ending. Passable film, but I’ve already almost forgotten what I watched it.

The Daisy Chain has one major problem in that it doesn't surprise in any way. This is a film about a devilish child, although by "devilish" I don't necessarily mean that it's directly a satanic child or Satan himself. She's just a little monster you don't want to be around. It makes you feel all the right uncomfortable feelings, but the film just doesn't go any further than that. Within its genre, it's more or less average, perhaps even less, but because it truly affects the viewer, it scrapes up a bit higher.
