I first saw the trailer for "The Unborn" a few weeks back, when I was at the cinema to watch "My Bloody Valentine". The trailer was so horrifying, terrifying and disturbing, that I ended up sat in my best friends lap, my head nested into her shoulder. Considering I had such a dramatic reaction to the trailer, I knew I would have to watch the film when it was released, regardless of what it would do to my blood pressure, and my poor best friends lap. Last night, we bit the bullet. Me, Sam and Bridget. Sam and I were clever. We decided that there was strength in numbers, and arranged for her to sleep over at my house, so ...  Read the complete review

The Unborn is not the sort of film that I would normally watch but it was at a friends house so I didn't really have much choice about watching it! It wasn't really what I expected. Casey Beldon is the main character and she is being plagued by a dybuk thats haunting her, and trying to take her body.

Now its haunting her, so it ...  Read the complete review

Young and beautiful (why am I not surprised in a horror film??) Casey starts dreaming of a creepy kid who "wants to be born." As she continues seeing this little sweet-looking demon everywhere, she decides to find some answers. With some digging, she finds out that she is being haunted by a dybbuk, a demon who is somehow connected to twins and is determined to possess Casey. It is obvious that Odette Yustman and Cam Gigandet were cast mainly because of their looks, not necessarily because of their acting abilities. Gigandet however, does not disappoint. It is the leading actress Yustman who displays some uneven acting in the film. I am sure that wearing ...  Read the complete review
