The Gathering is a 2003 thriller/horror film directed by Brian Gilbert and starring Christina Ricci.
Synopsis
Cassie Grant, une jeune américaine, est renversée par une voiture en pleine campagne anglaise. Marion Kirkman, la conductrice, appelle immédiatement une ambulance. Après examen à l'hôpital local, le médecin conclut que, alors que Cassie ne présente que quelques égratignures, l'accident lui a fait perdre la mémoire. Elle ne connait plus que son nom et son pays d'origine et ne sait plus ni où elle habite, ni pourquoi elle est en Angleterre. Le docteur lui conseille du calme afin de, peut-être, retrouver la mémoire. Prise de pitié et se sentant responsable, Marion Kirkman invite Cassie chez elle. Elle fait la connaissance de Simon, le mari de Marion. Les jours suivants, Cassie commence à avoir des visions concernant le futur des personnes de son entourage direct.Actors

At a government laboratory in rural California, a weaponized version of influenza (called Project Blue) is accidentally released, immediately wiping out everyone on staff except for military policeman Charles Campion and his family, who flee the base. However, Campion is already infected by the superflu, nicknamed "Captain Trips", and spreads it to the outside world. That evening, Campion crashes his car at a gas station in East Texas where Stu Redman (Gary Sinise) and some friends have gathered. When they investigate, they find Campion dying of the flu next to his wife and baby daughter, who are already dead. Campion tells Stu with his dying breath that he was followed from the base by a mysterious figure, and states "You can't outrun the Dark Man". The next day, the U.S. military arrive to quarantine the town. While the other townspeople quickly become ill and die, Stu remains healthy and is confined at a CDC facility in Vermont order to study a possible cure. This proves futile and the superflu rages unchecked, causing civilization to collapse and killing over 99% of the population of the entire world in less than two months.
