Angel Baby

Oh Yes! Rebecca De Mornay give me some Risky Business!!!!

So a couple goes on a retreat to a cabin in the woods! As we all know, nothing bad ever happens at a cabin in the woods! There is no safer place to be than in a cabin in the woods!!! Plus, this really saves on a movie's budget since you don't need to have a lot of extras and face it, filming in the city is expensive!

Of course early on we get a rule breaker, -1 Star for a bathtub scene with no nudity shown. We don't like that. It's so unnecessary.

Then Rebecca shows up. Wow this movie is halfway over and nothing has happened -1 Star.

LAter on there is a sex scene, until of course the demon or whatever reveals. And again, no nudity. Another rule broken -1 Star

So when is the horror supposed to start here?

Okay so there's a fight at the end that is somewhat entertaining. But the end is not good enough for a star.

2/10.

I am neither cast or crew on this film. That being said, for an independent film, this Thriller/Suspence had my wife and I hooked from the beginning. My wife inparticular, usually falls asleep while watching TV at night, but this movie had her full attention as well as mine. We both had two "Oh sh!%" moments and at the exact same time. The movie had us in full debate and even question our predictions on who was who, and what was going to happen next. The ending had me and my wife asking..."Who the Heck was that?" To see what I mean, you need to watch the movie. When all is said and done, I recommend this movie to those who love Suspence. The ending is open for debate if a sequel will be made. We will see.

This is neither a great movie, nor a real stinker. In a house where an abuser father is about to seriously harm one of his children, the daughter steps up and puts a bloody stop it to. We then are introduced to Val, who just lost her twins in pregnancy, and her husband Justin. She has a friend Chloe who gives her support, has some medical training, and wants to make sure she takes her medicine to help her healing, and also get plenty of rest. After all, Val is crestfallen over the loss, and she is also sensitive to noise, which isn't helped by living just off a freeway. Justin, who does handy work, finds a cabin in the mountains that had been empty for 25 years, fixes it up some and they move there. Things start to go bump in the night, there are creaks, doors suddenly open and there seems to be a ghost of a man present. A book titled Angel Baby seems to be prominent, and also movies around a lot, but where it came from is an unknown. While Rebecca DeMornay gets prominent space on the cover art, she has little more than a cameo. Things get worse when Chloe makes a visit, and seems too involved with Justin. By then, many may already have worked out a scenario, but the twist is something many would not see coming, and helps elevate what could be a routine and boring film.

Horrible acting, stupid characters. Who gave the "doctor" her medical degree? And more importantly,who in their right mind would use her as a doctor? Also as a wife,it would have taken me 10 minutes to tell her to get the hell out of my house! Then the husband and "doctor" go to town and the wife wants to go but the husbands response is "you need rest" and the wife just stays???? WTH? She obviously and rightfully didn't trust the woman. Nothing ever really happens, nothing is explained. The book isn't explained,the jewelry box isn't explained. Total waste of time. Not really sure what else to say except skip it, unless of course you need a good nap!

The acting in Angel Baby was amazing - I thought all of the actors were amazing for their role. The plot twist really added to the creative story line. I would definitely watch this again because it was super engaging.

I was not expecting the reveal at the end when we found out they were siblings!

The casting for this movie worked really well - the main guy was super interesting and a great actor.

I feel like most scary movies follow the same boring storyline of an haunted house and an exorcist where I just get bored by their fear. This one was definitely creative and more of a thought-provoking movie which is why I loved it.
