Fantastic!

it is the rare 'crazy' movie that actually has something to say.

The tone of this movie is interesting -- the stakes are both dramatic and high, but it's balanced with a lot of fun, tongue and cheek dialogue.

Actress is magnificent and exudes a hypnotic screen presence in this affecting drama.

The Lamashtu was an invasive deity from ancient Mesopotamina who disrupted childbirth, stealing newborn children from their mothers. The goddess was the bloodsucker daughter of the Sky God Anu. Obviously, she needed a lot of company in the vast spaces of the sky, and she preferred her company to be young."Still/Born" approaches this mythological topic more from a clinical psychological perspective than as a mythical archetype. After Mary and Jack lose one of their babies, who is a stillborn, Mary comes to believe that her healthy baby Adam is also in danger of being gobbled up by the the voracious Lamashtu.The main problem with the film is that it avoids examination of the mythical question and manipulates the viewer with the question of whether Mary is suffering from what the generic psychiatrist in the film calls "postpartum psychosis," or the loss of the woman's ability to discern reality after childbirth.The flimsy plot did not deliver many chills, and the lead character Mary was helpless and pathetic in confronting the challenge of Lamashtu. The reason why successful horror films like "The Exorcist" work is that characters put up a battle against the paranormal and unseen forces of evil. In the case of "Still/Born," Mary is the quintessential victim.Sadly, there were too many plot holes, such as the inexplicable escape of Mary from the psych ward and the puzzling ending that explains nothing about the true nature of Lamashtu. Overall, this was a direct-to-viewer film that added nothing new to the horror genre.

I am very pleased with this film. Finally a good horror in a series of bad films. Very good scary scenes, and it's pay attention. I'm just shocked by the end of the movie, the stupidest thing they could do is to make that type of the end. The acting is very good, especially the main actress, a very powerful performance.If we neglect the retarded end, the film is very good. All recommendations.

This is a well made and acted interesting story.I don't know why it has such a low rating here - it is worth watching if you fancy a bit of supernatural suspense Without giving anything away, there are a few twists and turns that lead the viewer along different paths of possibilities - which makes it interesting, because there are times when you have to think about what you are watching.All-in-all not the best movie of all time, but certainly viewable.

Only rated one star because that's the highest I could rate, story line sucked, graphics sucked.. just a horrible movie all together. One of the worst movies that I've ever saw
