Synopsis

Mary is a woman who is pregnant of twins. But what seemed to be the beginning of a beautiful family ends up turning into a real nightmare. During childbirth, Mary loses one of the babies, having to face a postpartum depression entering a spiral of neurosis. After the tragic event, Mary discovers several stories about a demonic being that feeds on pregnant mothers and newborns, tormenting the fact that this evil entity could be behind her and that it was the real cause of death of her childbirth. The Director Brandon Christensen directs this horror film starring Christie Burke, Jesse Moss, Rebecca Olson, Jenn Griffin and Sheila McCarthy, Sean Rogerson, Dylan Playfair, Praneet Akilla and Pat Chau.
