One of the scariest movies I have ever seen
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review."The Unborn" is a unique horror movie in that it explores something new - a girl being haunted by a demon from Jewish folklore, who wishes to be 'reborn' through her, after failing to possess her twin brother who died in utero. The young woman in question is Casey [Odette Yustman] who suddenly finds herself being haunted by visions of a young boy who has strange, haunting eyes. With the help of her boyfriend and best friend, Casey finds a link between the visions and an old Holocaust survivor who knew Casey's mother before she [Casey's mom] killed herself. Gary Oldman plays a supporting role as Rabbi Sendak who tries to help Casey, as does Idris Elba as an Episcopalian priest. now.. the film does borrow scenes from other movies, like a take on the creepy spider-walking old lady from "The Exorcist 3", the old monster in the mirror gimmick, and the almost subliminal quick shots of demonic faces as used by William Friedkin in the original "Exorcist". i'll admit, some of the most appealing images in "The Unborn" are that of Odette Yustman. The camera (and seemingly the film-makers) adore this beautiful woman, and even though much was made of the "exploitation" of her physical appearance in the film. she does help make the film a memorable experience. if you didn't know? Odette starred in last year's "Cloverfield", this year's "The Unborn", and recently signed on for a remake of an obscure UK horror film entitled "And Soon the Darkness". With this kind of track record she is well along her way as a "scream queen", and she does have several scenes in "The Unborn" where she has the opportunity to live up to the title - even when she can't scream; in one scene Odette is bound to a gurney and gagged, but she still manages to emote terror quite well even while restrained and with a huge gag holding open her jaws. As for the Blu-ray release, it parallels the substance of the film, there is just nothing there. The Blu-ray offers both the theatrical version of the film as well as an "unrated, extended cut," but do not think that you will find any more substance with the added footage. The Blu-ray is BD Live enabled, but the only bonus materials included on the disc are "deleted scenes in Hi-Def." These Hi-Def (1080i) scenes give us such memorable fare as: "Scene 90: Casey runs into Mr. Shields" or "Scenes 127-133: Casey jogs by her mom's grave / signs up for classes." The bonus features are good as well I would recommend this as a good horror chick-flick. The script and cinematography is good. and this is definitely worth a view. that's why I give it 5 stars. I believe this one deserves kudos for effort which turns out to be a pleasant surprise. I think you will find the 90 minutes viewing scary time well spent.

Film was better then I thought it would be
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.So last night I sat down to watch The Unborn. I had seen the trailers and thought it looked ok and thought it would pass the time of a boring night in on my own. what followed was a little unexpected, I certainly didn't expect it to totally freak me out! I was like a child! watching through my fingers in parts to try and protect myself from the evil!! In short, the main character "Casey Beldon" played by Odette Yustman, discovers she was a twin, however her brother had died in the womb. As the film progresses she discovers terrible things happened to her family. In particular her Grandmother who was also a twin was subjected along with her brother to terrible scientific experiments by the badguys during WW2. During these experiments her brother died, however his body returned from the grave after being posessed by an evil entity. And this entity is now back to haunt and reak havoc with Casey's life in a desperate bid to "Be born now"... The film see's Gary Oldman back to what he does best - horror. His and the entire casts performances are excellent and you feel a real connection with Casey, unlike so many other horrors where you really don't care if they live or die. The film is very creepy and has lots of very weird twisted moments that stick in your mind. Along with the usual shock/jump moments it is very well put together and not your usual churned out rubbish we see allot of these days. Highly recommended.

Good horror movie!
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This was a good horror movie with lots of thrills and chills, and great special effects. In fact, they should've used some of those special effects to add some weight to Odette Yustman. Not only was she a terrible actress, but she was so sickly skinny I thought she was going to fall down and die half way through the film. I don't like all these scrawny pencil figured women they've been using in movies lately. What happened to the hourglass figure? Gary Oldman was the only good actor in the film, in my opinion. (He's the only reason I gave the acting 3 stars. Aside from him, I'd probably give the rest of the cast 1 star.) Other than that, it was a great movie with a good storyline. I highly recommend it.

Could've been great, but it's not.
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.if your an average movie buff who likes a few scares then this is right up your street. it's not special by any-means, and most likely will be forgettable to you. The movie is about a young woman named, Casey being haunted by her dead twin bother Jumby..he kills everybody who was important in her life, including their Grandma. lets see in the end once she defeats him she asks himself what did this happen? turns out since he wasn't born, he wanted her to give birth to him, and she finds out she is about to give birth to twins, Meaning he's one of those twins, bc the kid Casey was babysitting kept saying Jumby wants to be Born now. if this sounds silly to you then trust me it is this move is decent at best.
