The Unborn (DVD) Reviews

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. She is having strange dreams that ...  Read the complete review

This film looks poor from the cover - a weak excuse to show us a young woman's bum. Quite why the scary stuff seems to happen when she is in her underwear is a mystery to all, but happen then it does. Basically this film is about an evil spirit slowly but surely taking over the aforementioned hot semi-naked girl, and that's ...  Read the complete review

After seeing the trailer for this I intended to go to the cinema to see it until I read countless negative movie critic reviews and decided it might be more worthwhile to wait for the DVD release. I'm glad I did. This is a movie whose cleverly edited and ubiquitous trailer sucked in audiences hungry for a genuinely eerie story, great mind-bending ...  Read the complete review

Film Review Only: I have watched The Unborn twice now as I found it pretty good. It had quite a unique storyline, which was cleverly followed in the film. It is very slow to start and you don't have much of a clue as to what's going on but you slowly gather bits of information that help to explain the story. It's only about half way ...  Read the complete review

You may have noticed the poster for The Unborn, which boasts Odette Yustman's perfectly-shaped ass as the main feature of this supposedly frightful, supernatural horror-thriller. That's about right. Yustman does spend a majority of the movie prancing about in her underwear, attempting to look frightened by the number of threatening ...  Read the complete review

Yawn. How much more of this stuff is going to be churned out by the Hollywood machine? Let's get the plot over with before we get to my (admittedly sour) opinion of this, and other films in this genre, movie. Casey (played by Odette Yustman) starts to suffer frightening (for her, if not for the viewer) visions and then (oh no!) one of her ...  Read the complete review

This is a mind bending horror that got me on the edge of my seat. I wouldn't say it was scary but it definately got your attention to keep on watching. The story line is about a girl who has a strange dream one night about a child who stabbs her in the eye. When she wakes up here eye has turned a different colour so she visits the ...  Read the complete review

I rented this film, psyched myself up to watch it (after seeing the trailer, I thought this film would leave me sleeping with the light on), but it was not at all scary. There are 'jumpy parts' but nothing that would scare you silly. The film has your 'typical' young female, popular with her friends Casey begins to have strange dreams, ...  Read the complete review

American horror has been a rather stagnant state of affairs for many years now, with cliched jump scares, wooden characters, and convoluted storylines that make little sense. The Unborn, unfortunately, fails to break away from that mold - instead, this is simply another trashy horror film, sadly written and directed by the mind behind the story of ...  Read the complete review

A horror movie buff I decided to purchase 'The Unborn' and add it to my collection. The movie is about a young girl who finds out her family have been hiding a secret. After having a run in with the little boy she babysits her eyes began to change colour, the reason being that she was a twin but her brother died while in the womb. She begins to ...  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 ...  Read the complete review

I was really excited about going to the cinema to see this film, based on the trailers I had seen on TV. However, after leaving the cinema, I did feel as though I had just wasted a couple of hours of my life that I wouldn't get back! The story centres around Casey Beldon (Odette Yustman) an only child, who is a normal student, with ...  Read the complete review

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 ...  Read the complete review
