Just another horror movie with a most basic horror plot known to humanity. Two more millions of these on the way...
The overall scene was okay, although the house didn't seem creepy, I feel like they failed to maintain any horror atmosphere to it.
It's hard to sympathize the main character, as she is basically constantly punishing people around her and herself for something that cannot be undone or fixed. Creating trouble from nothing. Classic silly behavior, inability to just talk stuff out and reason leads to conflict growing unreasonably and alogically. On the other hand, some might say that is probably realistic with her being pregnant and all... still this excuse doesn't make it any better, as the twist is just shallow and weak, and seems forced.
It's not terrible, if you just have nothing to watch at night and you randomly see this coming up on a TV, you might as well see it through, but overall, it's passable and forgettable. Holds no artistic value I dare to say.

Bed Rest" is a horror movie that had its moments of suspense and thrills, but it also had its fair share of slow and uneventful parts. The acting of Melissa Barrera was a standout for me, and her performance helped to keep me engaged in the story. The themes explored in the movie, such as pregnancy, lost pregnancy and lost children trauma, trust issues and mental health issues, made it more adult oriented and added depth to the story. However, the movie's reliance on cheap jump scares and strange whispering voices and sounds felt overused and detracted from the overall experience. The ending was not as satisfying as I hoped it would be, leaving me feeling a bit underwhelmed. Overall, while "Bed Rest" has its merits, it is not a movie that I would highly recommend.
I have to admit, Melissa Barrera was the reason why I decided to watch that movie, because I really loved her on the "Scream" movies. The plot of the movie was very interesting and kinda innovative. The storyline was well-written and everything was well-explained, even though it was kinda simple. The characters were very interesting, well-developed and kinda likeable. The filming location of the movie was just a big old creepy house in the middle of nowhere. The casting was really good and their acting was descent (Melissa Barrera was as good as always). In my opinion, it was a kinda scary movie and there were many jumpscares. The ending scene was definitely unpredictable and I really enjoyed the plot twist. Overall, it was a nice horror movie, very creepy, kinda intense and I would probably recommend it to my friends.
Started watching this movie with lot of expectations - Good horror, and captivating storyline.
On the contrary, no major chills, a plain horror movie that picks up only in climax. But the ending is super simple. Melissa looks terrific though and if u r fan of hers, then u won't be disappointed.
Screenplay was tad too straight, no major horror elements at the start till mid, i thought it should be a great build up for the climax but the story never picks up. Some thrill in the mids, but that too was too short. However, it's not a bad movie, direction and production value was good and could be in your list if there is nothing to watch.

I found this accidentally and decided to watch it. Maybe I could relate as during my first pregnancy I too was placed on bedrest for quite some time due to some complications. I was bored out of my mind. That was 45 years ago. Hard to imagine, no tv in the bedroom, no cellphone, no internet, nothing like that. I read books, and wrote in my journal. Anyway, I digress. This movie dragged at times, but I found it sufficiently creepy and it held my interest. The ending was a surprise and while I would not go out of my way to watch it, I wouldn't turn it off. The only thing that bugged me was the husband who seemed to be loving and concerned, was never at home in the evening (yes trying to build his career) but still never seemingly being around, and the nurse wasn't fully explained either. Things at time seemed to be patched together. But I've seen worse for sure.

- TriviaIn one of the scenes where Melissa Barrera is in bed, she appears to be reading "Impresiones y Paisajes", a 1918 travel book written by Federico García Lorca, a Spanish poet and playwright, one of the great writers in the Spanish language. The title of the book is in Spanish.
- GoofsOn the cover of the book by Federico García Lorca that Melissa Barrera is reading, both the name and the title are wrong: it says Frederico Garcia Lorca "Impresiones y Paisanjes", when the name is Federico and the word in the title is "...Paisajes."
