The Child Remains

Well acted, eerie, and a good combination of Amytiville Horror and The Shining type of movies. Very surprised to see such poor reviews, for an up and coming filmmaker as I suppose this was, it was a good movie, in the most difficult genre to make a good movie. I had decided not to see the reviews before watching it and I'm glad didn't.

Good acting, perhaps the story was a little predictable, but good as well. Great photography. Not sure about the dual outcome at the end.

Why do they ruin a movie with LOUD MUSIC and MUMBLING? LOUD MUSIC leading to a scare factor of zero. Have to turn the volume high just to hear the MUMBLING of lines and BAM comes the LOUD MUSIC.

I saw a negitive review from September and I had to follow up with a positive one. This absolutely counts as horror, intriguing plot, spooky turn arounds and as someone who loves traditionally horror (not gore, there is a difference between the two) I think it hit all the boxes and even had two parts I was not expecting!

I sincerely enjoyed it.. I think any female would be creeped out as its about birth, murder, ghosts and demon babies.

hits more to home when your body is capable of birth (my bf and I had different reactions) but he still had it be a 7/10.

Worth a watch! I won't say any spoilers, but it is slow moving and one part your like WHAT? satan?

so good.

The camera work here is terrible and the effects are worse. Suzanne Clément deserves so much better than this and she is the only reason I haven't given this a 3

This film has a slow build up to a conclusion that I, certainly, didn't see coming. I like movies that keep me guessing. The production isn't top quality, no offense to Canada, but I knew right away it was coming from there. I'm not sure what it is about their movies, but I can almost always identify them and/or their actors. Not bad, just different. The writers did a nice job off tying up loose ends that I didn't even suspect existed. The saddest thing about this film is that thing like this actually happened, giving horror writers material for stories to come. This one was inspired by a Canadian adoption agency, but America had its own outrageous orphanage scandal, too. For me, it was worth watching. And, for the record, this ISN'T a phony review, as one reviewer suggests. Each to their own, as the saying goes.
