It's Alive
Please be quiet. Do not wake him up.
Directed by Josef Rusnak
Produced by Alive Productions, Amicus Entertainment
A dark, tense horror film that perverts the intimacy of new parenthood by making the newborn itself a source of brutal violence and dread.
When Lenore Harker learns that she's pregnant, she leaves graduate school to set up a home with her boyfriend Frank in the country. The happy new family's lives takes a gruesome turn when animals and people end up brutally dead – all with a mysterious connection to their newborn.
