Spooky creepy tale of a small town in a heatwave where a priest tries to do his best with and for his friends and neighbours, while across the country a car picks up odd passengers and heads for the town, leaving destruction in its wake. It's the eve of the Millennium and in some ways it all seems a bit tame and understated, to be honest, especially compared with the last few years - we've had Death, War, Pestilence and whichever one is in charge of climate change to contend with - but it's a nice slow character-driven build to a fiery climax that marks the start of the quartet.
