Friday ![]() The Unborn is a supernatural thriller that draws upon the legend of a dybbuk, a malevolent spirit that refuses to leave the human world and inhabits the body of a person. Protagonist Casey Beldon (Odette Yustman) is plagued by merciless dreams, visions of strange looking dogs, and an evil child with bright blue eyes. After being hit with a mirror by her neighbor's son, Casey's eyes begin to change color and she learns she had a twin brother who died in the womb. Casey begins to suspect that the spirit haunting her is the soul of her dead twin, being possessed by a dybbuk, wanting to be born so it can transfer to the world of the living. Casey meets a woman named Sofi, who is revealed to be her grandmother. Sofi explains that she had a twin brother who was killed in Nazi experiments in Auschwitz when they were both just children. The boy was brought back to life by a dybbuk who intended to use his body as a portal into the world of the living. Sofi killed her twin to stop the dybbuk, and now it haunts her family for revenge. Sofi refers Casey to Rabbi Sendak (Gary Oldman), who can perform a Jewish exorcism to remove the dybbuk. The exorcism is performed, but things go awry as the dybbuk tries to stop Rabbi Sendak from completing the ritual. The dybbuk disappears after the exorcism and the death of Casey's boyfriend. Soon afterward, Casey learns she is pregnant with twins. Fana, Naq & I catched this flick at The Cathay last Friday after our Higher Nitec Registration. We definitely were expecting some serious horror scenes, something really scream-worthy as such. But alas to our disappointment, the movie lacked in many aspects. Not only did it lacked in its scary parts, it's only rich in suspense. Seriously, i'm looking for some parts to scream out loud and not to just hold my breath and only to release it to see that the part's actually over, as in nothing happened. Just another one of the many suspence parts -___-" Though, there was this one scary part that really got me going whereby this paralysed guy, Eli, was chasing this old lady around with his body contorted in a upside semi-circle manner with his head oddly able to turn 360 degree. I swear, that was probably one out of three scary parts in the movie. So, there was this one part where Eli was gaining up on the old lady and she seek refuge in an old closet, when Eli suddenly popped beside her. The suspence was killing me and I let out a loud piercing scream, cause I couldn't hold it in. I got a lil embarassed after that cos I heard some laughters even from the other side of the theatre, lol. But i shaked it off, i mean this is a scary movie people. You're supposed to be shivering, shitting in your pants or something. I made the movie sound happening with my scream, alright. Lol! Funnily, Naq was laughing and smiling throughtout the movie, like she wasn't even freaked out. Whereas Fana just held the popcorn bag to shield her eyes when the scary and suspence parts were showing. Cute, lol. But overall, it was a fun experience though the movie was lame. I'll pick a scary movie anytime over any other genres of movie. Be it comedy/thriller/action/sci-fi whatever alright. It's the best friend-bonding movie seriously! :P So girls, beep me up for any future outings. Time check: 1.17 am ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ, not! Labels: I love you girls. |
