Godsend

Paul and Jessie Duncan are living a joyful life with their eight-year-old son, Adam. They enjoy family celebrations and cherish every moment together, forming a picture-perfect family.

The family's happiness suddenly turns to heartbreak when Adam dies in a car accident. This tragedy follows just one day after they celebrated his birthday, leaving Paul and Jessie devastated and struggling to cope with their grief.

In their time of mourning, Paul and Jessie encounter Dr. Richard Wells, a former professor of Jessie. He proposes an unconventional solution to their pain: cloning Adam, presenting it as a way to resurrect their lost son.

Initially hesitant, Paul and Jessie ultimately agree to go through with the illegal cloning procedure. They assume new identities as they prepare to welcome their son back into their lives, in hopes of rekindling their former happiness.

The new Adam grows up, and at first, everything seems promising as he embodies the spirit of their original son. Paul and Jessie invest time in nurturing and guiding him, hoping to avoid any lingering darkness from his origins.

On Adam's eighth birthday, the same age as his original self at the time of death, he begins to experience nightmares. Dr. Wells reassures Paul that this is typical for boys, but the situation soon escalates beyond conventional expectations.

Adam II's nightmares manifest into terrifying visions during the day, where he sees a boy named Zachary tormented at school. These visions become increasingly vivid, including gruesome images of a school in flames and violence against a woman.

A chilling phone call from the parent of a missing child brings to light Adam's deceit regarding his whereabouts. This shocking revelation intensifies Paul's concerns for Adam, especially as they later see the boy's lifeless body in the river.

With Dr. Wells' help, Paul investigates Adam's visions and uncovers critical information about Zachary Clark, the bullied boy in Adam's dreams. He learns about Zachary's tragic past, including his involvement in a fire that claimed his mother's life.

Paul uncovers the startling truth that Zachary's father, a geneticist, is none other than Dr. Wells. In a desperate bid to bring back his own son, Wells had mixed Zachary's damaged DNA with that of Adam's, leading to unforeseen consequences.

Upon realizing the danger Adam faces from Zachary's influence, Paul rushes home. He arrives just in time to save Jessie from a violent confrontation, as Adam begins to succumb to Zachary's essence threatening to overpower his identity.

After the immediate threat is neutralized, the family decides to move to a new location in search of peace. Initially, Adam seems to recover, displaying signs of happiness and normality as they settle into their new life.

Despite initial optimism, Adam is again confronted with nightmares when left alone. He experiences a chilling vision of Zachary's decayed arm reaching out from a closet, indicating that the struggle for Adam's identity is not yet over.
