Synopsis: The unforgettable emotional and psychological journey into the terror of a young woman forced to make a mother's ultimate decision when the stillborn child she's carried to term returns to life with a horrifyingly sinister appetite…for Blood!
As per the plot sounds you may guess "Grace" is no different from any other ‘killer baby/Demon Child” films. But the fact is it crafts a better & a more serious-toned and melodramatic story around the infant and develop characters before getting to the real horror elements. Though bit uneasily slow-paced but overall an intriguing psychological drama/thriller, with a tight & smart script, excellent photography and quality acting performances. Especially Jordan Ladd, in the lead did a brilliant job with her role of Grace’s mother.
From start to end there is an indefinable ghastly clod atmosphere throughout the film that can make you feel somewhat uncomfortable but keep you engaged with it; kudos to the writer/director Paul Solet for that as it’s his debut feature and he has done an inspiring job indeed.
Recommended.
