Horror The Davies expect a baby, which turns out to be a monster with a nasty habit of killing when it's scared. And it's easily scared.

	Media	Author	Review
		Meagan Navarro Bloody Disgusting	"[It] ranks among the more recognizable titles from the auteur (...) Pure Cohen in that it’s that unique blend of schlock horror meets relevant commentary"
		Kim Newman Empire	"Compelling 1970s take on the monster horror genre which remains fresh and hugely watchable (…) Rating: ★★★★ (out of 5)"
		Variety Staff Variety	"The far-fetched rampage by the fleetingly-glimpsed infant gives director Larry Cohen the chance to shoot a few technically interesting scenes.
		Josh Vasquez Slant	"A multi-layered work that is at the same time starkly clear and chillingly precise in its observations (…) Rating: ★★★ (out of 5)"
