The Baby (1973)

Mar 04, 2012 19:30


So I randomly watched a movie on Netflix the other week entitled The Baby and it was the best movie I've seen in quite a while.

Plot: A social worker investigates a family and their 20-something year old baby.

The "baby" is literally in diapers and crawls and only baby talks. It's a disturbing, but awesomely good psychological horror film. There are some scenes that are mindfucks but it's not graphic, just implied, since it's a PG rated movie. I had to watch this film a second time because it haunted me so much.

Because I don't want to give anything away, I will just say this: if you like films like Whatever Happened To Baby Jane and Mommie Dearest, you are going to enjoy this film.

9/10
Highly recommended

For more details on this movie (including pics), this site is wonderful. There are some spoilers on that site.
