Rating:  - Creepy, sleazy, cheesy fun!
Good old Roger Corman is at it again with 1991's "The Unborn." In case you have been living under a rock for the last thirty or forty years, Roger is one of the chaps responsible for a large percentage of the low budget schlock that lines the shelves at your local video store. He's fallen on hard times in the last decade or so, especially since the arrival of DVD has given any schlep with a video camera and a dream access to the straight to video market Corman once controlled with an iron fist, but ...

Rating:  - Are you kidding me? This was LAME!!!
I WANT MY 96 MINUTES BACK!!!! REALLY LAME HORROR FLICK!!
I don't know what it is about the quality of horror in the early 90s...but this is a good example of how it can go terribly wrong. If this film had been made in 1981 or 1971..or heck, even 1961 it could have had a good kitch factor...instead it's an overly stylized attempt at what a good 80's Slasher actually is.
The one star rating is for the casting of Lisa Kudrow (I think she's super cute as a brunette!)...and Comedian Kathy ... Read More
Rating:  - Having a baby can be a scream
Director Rodman Flender film doesn�t have the resonance of great horror. At times it barely rises above an exploitation title, being hindered by gross out effects and the developing ridiculousness of the screenplay by Henry Dominic. The narrative reads as Rosemary�s Baby redux with a dash of David Cronenberg and The Boys from Brazil.
After a forboding prologue where a pregnant woman is made to suffer because she drips blood onto her kitchen floor as she eats raw meat, we meet Brooke Adams who ... Read More
Rating:  - scared the plasma out of me
I recently underwent surgery. The hostpital's movie channel showed "The Unborn," and I figured "what the hell, I'm not going anywhere. Might as well watch it" (and the intravenous machines I'm hooked up to won't allow me to reach the TV.) Well this was the scariest thing I've ever seen. My heart raced at such a pitch that my plasma drips exploded. What a movie. Brooke Adams was wonderful; better than Mia in Rosenberg's Baby. If you like your horror "on the rocks," THE UNBORN is for you.
Rating: - Excellent horror.
Brooke Adams vs. psycho fetus created by wacko doctor James Karen in an attempt to breed superhumans. Good suspense, good acting and good scares. Docked a star only for the absurd fetus-killing-victims-one-by-one plot development. A must see if you like horror.
