mary-179-677383 I watched this via Netflix so fortunately, didn't pay specifically for this movie. I had never heard of it but the summary seemed good.Anyways, it all went down hill during the birth of the baby. You may as well turn it off the TV right there and then. The baby is born and latches on to the doctor and bites his neck, killing him and then jumps to the nurse, latches on to the nurse and kills her.That's just the beginning of this terrible film. It just gets worse and more boring. The film is low budget and it shows with terrible special effects. Terrible directing, terrible filming. The storyline is also garbage and the acting is amateur.Should have never been made into a film.
nurselmh I couldn't get past the first 15 minutes with a straight face. I'm a nurse and the delivery scenes has the actors saying and doing so many wrong and ridiculous things, I couldn't stop laughing. Clearly, very little actual research was done for these scenes and the screenwriter went into fantasy mode based on how he imagines childbirth must be like. And whoever designed the vagina props has no real idea of what one looks like. Again, imagination. But I think it more likely that the prevailing mood was "We don't care!"Once I get this hilarity out of my system, I may try to watch the rest of this Z movie although I seriously doubt I will. Oh, let me think... Nope, I'm not going to finish this waste of time. And apparently, I can't use caps in the summary.
DustinRahksi I'll give asylum props for giving me a headache, this films color scheme is so bland and depressing, to the point I just wanted to shut it off. The editing and pacing was nauseating, it's just so random and pointless with what is happening on screen.The story: We open the film in traditional asylum film, a nude woman being sacrificed to the devil. What was the point of this scene, I don't know. Then we head over to the 11 minute birth scene, with some devil minion meandering around. So in this sequence we see him kill some random lady who just gave birth, wow that is cold. The birthing scene was too drawn out and unfocused, and do we really need to see the crowning, come on. So the baby is born, and it strangles the doctor and nurse with it's umbilical cord. And they take the baby home, and...well lets just get this over with fast. Nudity, nudity, baby preforming cunnilingus on mom, husband dies, baby is taken away. There, you got it, because I don't.So the woman moves in with her bipolar sister. The minion somehow followed them there. And from this point on, every one and everything just dies. It's not even worth getting into because it just too out there. The husband is never talked of again, the detective always has a lollipop in his mouth when ever you see him. There is no rhyme or reason.This movie so bad I don't even want to write this review, because I then would have to remember what happened.
suite92 The film opens with a human sacrifice in some dark underground cultist den.Then it jump shifts to a difficult birthing (Veronica, Carlos) in a modern hospital in Los Angeles. Mahari, the murderer from the first scene shows up; where did that come from? He disappears after murdering another woman who was trying to breastfeed her newborn. The arrogant physician goes to C-section after kicking out Carlos. This newborn is not delivered; he escapes. Even better, the 'newborn' never moves, but somehow kills the physician and the attending nurse. Someone else closes up Veronica, and she seems happy and calm while breast feeding the monster that just killed two people.What a fine beginning that was. Mahari, still in physician's garb, tries to enter the crime scene, but the cops prevent it.Six days later, Carlos, Veronica, and Sebastian go home. Soon odd occurrences start: the flies, the dead rat, Sebastian getting between Veronica's legs, Carlos pouring a kettle full of boiling water down his own throat, and Mahari shows up to try to steal Sebastian.When the cops show up, Child Social Services take Sebastian. ("We're the good guys, Mrs. Delgado." )Veronica goes to stay with her sister Gabriella Martinez. On the way to the baby lockup, CSS Officer Vokel gets killed by her seat belt. Barnes returns Sebastian to Veronica, saying a judge ordered it. Gabriella lets Barnes know she's still sore about CSS taking her child Brittany from her.The weird events start up again, of course. Barnes lets them know that Mahari is on their radar; he's a Mayan prophecies doom sayer.Sebastian kills Gabriella. This was entirely unbelievable. Mahari kills a variety of people. Sebastian goes off on his own. The dead rats and dead birds continue to be produced. The murders continue.Does this thing ever reach some sort of resolution? About 60 minutes in, the fall into random events with no particular narrative, motivation, or logic is next to complete. Unfortunately, the film continues.------Scores-------Cinematography: 5/10 Jerky camera movement; some of it so out of focus and badly framed that one would think the Blair Witch was nearby.Sound: 5/10 Overbearing in some spots, quite weak in others.Acting: 4/10 OK given the screenplay, I guess.Screenplay: 0/10 The birthing scene was a motivational mess. I suppose births have been handled that badly, but I certainly hope not. The C-section birth has all the realism and logical soundness of a Chucky movie. The later actions have the same sort of problems with credibility. The badness just never ends.SFX: 0/10 Hideous. Insulting to almost any sensibility. The scenes with Sebastian are ridiculous.
