Charlie McGhee (Marguerite Moreau) has grown into a beautiful young woman. She still does not have control over her ability to channel her emotions into flame, though. She also is not free from a corporate goon squad who seek the girl who they have given these powers to. She is again joined by Rainbird (played this time by Malcolm McDowell) in her attempts to control her rage, and henceforth her power to set anything in her path aflame. Also joining them are others who have similar freakish powers also bestowed upon them by the scientific experiments of an evil corporation.

This sequel to the 1984 film based on Stephen King's novel follows a sexy Charlie through a four hour mini series that was originally shown on the Sci-Fi Channel. Loaded with pyrotechnics, flashbacks, and a new group of afflicted children, REKINDLED has as much in common with CARRIE and X-MEN than the original film starring Drew Barrymore.
