InformationRap This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.
Aubrey Hackett While it is a pity that the story wasn't told with more visual finesse, this is trivial compared to our real-world problems. It takes a good movie to put that into perspective.
Deanna There are moments in this movie where the great movie it could've been peek out... They're fleeting, here, but they're worth savoring, and they happen often enough to make it worth your while.
charliesbadslave82 I was excited to see that not only was this was on Frightpix but Debbie Rochon was in it. unfortunately my excitement quickly dwindled. I did not like this at all. I expected much better. Needless to say I didn't bother finishing it, and quickly chucked it from my Instant Queue. The part where she gives birth and then is holding the baby was about where I ended it. The characters who played the cops were just horrific and not in a good way. Boo. I was hoping for so much. Watch at your own risk. one at all. The gore was weak.The acting was just awful. the dialog wasn't clever. The characters were interesting at first, but they, much like the storyline, quickly went downhill. It could've been so much more. I had so much hope but when I watched it on Frightpix I was very disappointed. Don't waste your time.
artpf Former brothel owner struggles to protect her family from a parasitic twin.OK this is one twisted movie. Think blonde preggie chick who speaks with a Chinese accent.Think think cops eating poop soup.Think the original Leatherface as a doctor. Think evil baby twin with an Afro and an umbilical cord that levitates.Think laff out loud funny.Be prepared to be grossed out but unable to take your eyes off the screen.You have been warned.
D. Ceased I can't see why this is voted so highly. I have seen far better films sitting at a 2 or 3 (or even lower) on here, but this has a 6!? Impossible. By anyone's standards this is a bad movie, and the worst part is it's not even funny bad.The movie starts with Madam Won Ton seducing an Elvis impersonator, and getting pregnant by him. We cut to "the present" to the Asian restaurant owned and ran by the Won Ton family. Lily, or Little Wing, appears to be pregnant and as such causes a lot of problems. Two detectives come in trying to bust Madam Won Ton for running a brothel, but one ends up liking the Madam and offers to go on a date. Madam Won Ton takes Little Wing to the hospital, where it is revealed that she is not pregnant but has a fully grown parasitic twin. And then the movie goes full retard. They remove the baby and it looks so laughable. It's like a mix between a Cabbage Patch Kid and Franklin from Arrested Development. The Won Ton Baby kills a rat and masturbates to scat porn all while the most obnoxious, desperately trying to be funny voice over goes on and on. There's maybe two times the voice over was funny and even then it was nothing more than a chuckle. The Won Ton's leave the baby at the restaurant for the night, and it proceeds to kill one of the workers. And then continues to rape one drunk chick, kill one of the chefs while he's having pathetic sex, all the while the Won Ton children are sitting around smoking nothing (they're meant to be smoking weed, but the bong clearly has nothing in it!) They sit around acting retarded, even beyond stoned, while Madam Won Ton is on a date with Detective Duke, and the Won Ton baby kills. The two stoned Won Tons hear the baby kill and try to stop it. Madam Won Ton breaks the news to Lily (Little Wing) that her father was not Chinese, but was in fact an Elvis impersonator. She then goes on to tell her that a law passed that stopped everything carrying the King's image became outlawed and drove her father into poverty. Madam Won Ton soon after kills the baby with a vacuum cleaner and the movie ends with another woman giving birth to a similar, if not the same, creature.This movie tried so hard to be funny, but just failed on all accounts. The humor is all super low brow, poop jokes, terrible racist jokes, etc. It's humor for children that think making funny (see: stupid) noises and voices and saying random, or inappropriate things equals funny. There's a giggle here or a chuckle there, but nothing that is really funny. The effects aren't good either, there's minimal gore and it looks stupid and fake. The umbilical cord that whips around was pretty decent, I'll give them that. It's too bad the baby looks so f-ing awful. The characters have no charisma or charm, even Debbie Rochon, who I normally love, is bland here. Would not recommend.
D-Day77 Sitting down to watch this at its UK premiere at the Gorezoe Weekend of Horror I wasn't exactly sure what I was about to see.This homage to 80's shock horrors like Basket Case and Childs play was everything i could have wished for and then a swift kick in the nuts to follow.From the start I felt I was watching something that I perhaps shouldn't be. the Low production costs and sometimes shaky camera and off framing made this feel like a very underground independent film, luring me in with the expectation of something gross to come in the final reel Once the arrival of the title character hit the screens I found myself in pain form laughing so hard. having seen promo photos of Baby, what you see on the screen is a fantastic well executed puppet that is far better than I imagined and what he does on screen is both insane and hilarious and I'm sure everyone who watches this will try to impersonate baby's crazy noises, I know I did this is a fantastic horror comedy that gives you everything you could want from the genre. gore, shocks, sex, drugs, a freaky perverted baby, an Elvis impersonator and hell of a lot more.This is definitely worth watching
