The nightmare of forced motherhood
1 May 2023
Interesting allegory on generational conflict, the burden of inheritance and patriarchal stereotypes related to conception. The hallucinations are effective, and the surprise ending works. It is not easy to put the theme of the Shoah into a horror film, but the director succeeds in portraying the drama of the descendants of the survivors. Lastly, the ability to contaminate elements from various films of the genre deserves praise: the 'Rosemary's Baby'-style plot, the 'Altered States' tank, the 'Dead Ringers' set-up, etc. Not recommended for pregnant women and anxious expectant fathers. The title sums up several elements of the script.
