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<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->

Butch, the twist in the movie was definitely a risk to the entire film. Imo, the risk was not worth it. I enjoyed it up until that part but then I just couldn't keep myself from laughing.

2/5
