The Unborn


Casey Beldon (Odette Yustman) hated her mother for leaving her as a child. But when inexplicable things start to happen, Casey begins to understand why she left. Plagued by merciless dreams and a tortured ghost that haunts her waking hours, she must turn to the only spiritual advisor, Sendak (Gary Oldman), who can make it stop.With Sendak's help, Casey uncovers the source of a family curse dating back to Nazi Germany—a creature with the ability to inhabit anyone or anything that is getting stronger with each possession. With the curse unleashed, her only chance at survival is to shut a doorway from beyond our world that has been pried open by someone who was never born.

This is another one of those PG-13 horror movies that rests its head on random but incredibly creepy visuals to carry the movie. Its in the same pool as The Grudge, The Ring, etc. and has the same "Huh?" story. The visuals in this one were pretty high on the creepy scale compared to other movies like this to come out recently, but it wasn't near the expectations that were set by the kick ass trailer for this movie.

I'd lukewarmly recommend this movie. I wasn't that in to it but WW (the most avid of scary movie fans) enjoyed it so I'm sure other fright fest fans will enjoy it as well.
