Lullaby

Lullaby is above average with its acting, horror, and story. It is about a new parenthood couple raising a baby by themselves and realizing the difficulties of what it can go through. Until one day, Rachel (Mom/Main Protagonist) reads an lullaby from an unknown book to her baby so he can finally go to sleep the night they will never forget. Until that night, the new parents are receiving hallucinations, nightmares, and interactions of a demon named Lilith that takes all newborn babies with her and raises them by herself. Overall, the acting seemed pretty average and it was not that scary until the end of the film. The film is a bit slow, but the buildup is worth it along the way. Also, I did not like the ending to Lullaby. Would recommend it to watch it on either streaming services, DVD, or Blu-Ray because it felt like an above average horror flick.

That's the biggest question I have about this film. Where did the 20 million dollar budget go? Clearly this is being swept under the rug by the studio. I'm sure the director got a lot and the lead actors, but where did the rest go?

The movie is just not good. Plot is basic, no character development, flat acting (especially in the CGI scenes), totally formulaic with the standard jump scares.

I don't know, it passed the time I guess. But besides that it just didn't do anything I'll remember. There are some creepy scenes and I'm going to guess that's how it was pitched and got green lit, but besides that where did that 20M go?

Maybe a money laundering scheme. Some creep factor that's it l. 4/10.

When I stumbled upon the 2022 horror movie "Lullaby" here late in 2022, of course I had to watch it, as I have been enjoying horror movies ever since the early 1980s. Sure, I had never heard about "Lullaby" prior to sitting down to watch it, so I wasn't exactly harboring any expectations for the movie.

Writers Alex Greenfield and Ben Powell managed to put together an entertaining enough script for the movie. And while the movie was enjoyable enough, it started to lose its momentum in the last quarter of the movie. And as for the ending, well, let's just say it was generic and predictable.

There is a good atmosphere in the movie throughout the 89 minutes that the movie ran for, and the special effects definitely helped to bring the movie to life on the screen.

I wasn't familiar with the cast ensemble in "Lullaby", but they had some good actors and actresses to portray the various characters and roles, and that definitely also added something to the movie.

However, the movie was struggling with it being a tad too generic, and you always knew what would happen, more or less. So director John R. Leonetti wasn't exactly ahead of the audience much to be able to throw the audience a curveball or two as the narrative unfolded.

If you enjoy horror movies, then by all means give "Lullaby" a go. It is not an outstanding horror movie, nor a particularly memorable one, but it makes for an adequate viewing and turned out to be entertaining enough for what it was. This is, however, not a movie that warrants more than a single viewing.

My rating of "Lullaby" lands on a five out of ten stars.

Surprisingly, I did kind of enjoy this movie. Granted...there are hardly ANY horror movies out right now so my expectations are quite low, but overall it's a fine horror flick. When I saw it was the same director from the movie "Annabelle", I thought okay sure, let's check it out.

Make sure you go into this movie knowing it's a B-movie. The storyline was actually decent for a movie like this. I kept wanting to watch and see what happens in the end. The twist at the end is one thing that up'd my rating.

Be prepared, there are some funny-like scenes of a little two headed gremlin baby and even scenes of the demon Lilith that are just not scary at all, but go into this movie with an open mind. You'll get a good 3-4 creepy scenes, and possibly a couple jump scares. Like I said, the twist at the end made it a little more enjoyable in my opinion.

My Uncle Jerry is a huge fan of crying baby movies. And he was just absolutely raving about how great this movie is. He wouldn't shut up about it. So finally I caved in and watched Lullaby. And he wasn't joking. During one stretch of the movie, there is about 15 minutes of straight crying baby wails. Just crying and crying. And so realistic! Such shrill ear piercing cries. I just couldn't get enough! Sadly there is quite a bit of parrot squawking from their pet bird which takes away from some of the crying baby screen time. And as the movie goes on there seems to be more jump scares than baby crying which didn't really sit well with me. But it's really hard to find a great crying baby movie these days. So despite some of the movie's shortcomings, if you're looking for a good baby cry, I highly recommend this one!
