The Unborn
Cast: Odette Yustman, Gary Oldman, Meagan Good, Cam Gigandet, James Remar, Jane Alexander, Idris Elba, Carla Gugino, Rhys Coiro
Sometimes the soul of a dead person has been so tainted with evil
that it is denied entrance to heaven. It must endlessly wander the
borderlands between worlds, desperately searching for a new body to
inhabit.
And sometimes it actually succeeds.
Writer/director David Goyer (Blade: Trinity, The Invisible, Batman
Begins) gives a terrifying glimpse into the life of the undead in The
Unborn, a supernatural thriller that follows a young woman pulled into a
world of nightmares when a demonic spirit haunts her and threatens
everyone she loves.
Casey Beldon (Odette Yustman) hated her mother for leaving her as a
child. But when inexplicable things start to happen, Casey begins to
understand why she left. Plagued by merciless dreams and a tortured
ghost that haunts her waking hours, she must turn to the only spiritual
advisor, Sendak (Gary Oldman), who can make it stop.
With Sendak’s help, Casey uncovers the source of a family curse
dating back to Nazi Germany—a creature with the ability to inhabit
anyone or anything that is getting stronger with each possession. With
the curse unleashed, her only chance at survival is to shut a doorway
from beyond our world that has been pried open by someone who was never
born.
