An interesting story, but nothing else. Don't waste your time.
Not bad. Kind of minimalist, and the writing was a bit messy, but the pacing and ambiance aren't bad. It holds your attention in a spell binding kind of way that is difficult to really pin point. Ultimately it feels like something that may have been independent and low budget but which was made by people who knew what they were doing. Not much in the area of special effects. Just a few moments of barely glimpsed stuff. But that's kind of typical of inde low budget stuff, so I'm not complaining. That being said, though watchable and unexplainably spell binding, it stops short of being anything more than a 3 skull movie. I liked it, and it kept my attention for the most part, but it just doesn't have any real wow factor.
Pretty bad. Gave it two stars because the effects were decent. Otherwise it would’ve been one. The writing was awful, dialog especially, and you didn’t grow to care about any of the poorly-written and poorly-developed characters. It’s like if Lifetime made a horror movie. The “commercial break pauses” didn’t help. Give this a pass unless you’re really really bored.
I picked a random movie from Shudder. My only criteria was something recently current, that I've heard nothing about, and was rated at least 4-skulls. This ended up being ones of those rare picks where this random movie I never heard of was unique, kept me entertained, and, most importantly, was truly creepy. I'd definitely recommend if you find yourself not finding anything to watch and you want to give a lesser known movie a try
The story was outright bad. Characters had no depth and the whole getting pregnant with the demon was never really explained, but only the viewer had to assume the whole thing. The ending was awful. If that had been IRL, Vera would have been arrested for kidnapping and child endangerment within 12-24 hours.
