rok -- did you ever get around to seeing this one?
I enjoyed the movie for the most part. It's a weird one, though. I'd say the first hour and change isn't really horror/suspense. It's more of a sci-fi metaphor of the perils of being first time inexperienced parents. But it was actually pretty interesting and I really enjoyed the creature effects.
********PARTIAL SPOILER ALERT***********
At about 1:15, the movie takes an absolutely insane turn. It is so bizarre that it almost plays like dark humor (it's possible the filmmakers were going for this).
*******END SPOILER*********
There are definitely some chills and shocks in the final act. There were a few moments that were a little hard for me to suspend disbelief for and the dialogue wasn't outstanding. The leads did a decent job with the material they were given, though.
3.5/5
