Still/Born

The film itself starts off really good. You're unsure which turn the film will take as you keep watching. Which is good. But then it sort of disappears in the middle. Nothing much happens and it drags on and on really pointlessly with little or no plot to carry it and don't get me started on the ending. There's no resolution or satisfaction with the ending at all. I have given it a five however as the acting is good, visually it's really good with some good moments in it and it's not hammy at all but has a real good atmosphere. It just felt like it was lacking something still to be born.

I loved Grave Encounters, so when I saw this movie is from the same creators/producers I immediately wanted to watch it. The first act was kind of slow yet intriguing but the actress playing the mother is incredibly annoying and I was rooting for the father who really looks like Christian Bale. There are dumb moments especially with the baby and his cot. After all the drama why was the baby still left alone in his room? Naturally you would put your baby in your room if there's any signs of danger. But nope baby was alone despite all the facts presented. There were other odd moments that didn't make any sense or added no action to the plot. The acting was good though and quite believable. The villian had little screening time which was another negative point to add. Overall, a very forgettable movie that could've been executed much better.

Disappointed.

Hey, you! Do you like corny, lazy, hackneyed tropes? If so, step right this way!

The film starts out fairly well and builds slowly but quickly nosedives into a crescendo of awful horror cliches and jump scares.

One positive: Michael Ironside is in it... but, even then, that's just a glorified cameo.

I went into this movie with low expectations, and it surprised me. Has a few scares that actually gave me goosebumps. The story keeps you guessing. A must watch for a horror fan

I had not heard about this movie prior to getting the chance to sit down and watch it. And being a lifelong fan of horror movies, of course I took the time to sit down to watch it.

I will say that the acting in the movie was really good, and that was definitely what carried the movie most of the way.

The story, well, let's just say that it was mundane and generic, and something that has been used countless times before in the horror genre. So you shouldn't expect anything groundbreaking or innovative here.

The special effects in the movie were good, although there weren't used in an abundance.

This was more of a psychological take on the mother's mental state than it was an actual horror movie.

I had hoped for more focus on the Lammashtu, but that wasn't the case.

All in all, an average foray into the horror genre, but this is hardly a movie that I will watch a second time.
