Blessed

the good intentions are basic virtue of this strange film. strange not for idea but for its use. and for the not inspired manner to be more than poor exercise to remember a classic. the cast is OK and this is far to be a virtue. because the presence of Heather Graham and James Purefoy as a sweet couple, Fionnula Flanagan in skin of an interesting character and, the sad piece - Andy Serkis as pearl before swine in a movie who is only mixture between different ingredients, with large slices of Rosemary Baby and a lot of clichés. it is difficult to comment a film who is only exercise for a director ambition. or, only, a not inspired homage to Polansky and horror universe.

There were so many parallels to Rosemary's Baby that I kept waiting for some huge twist to throw me off, and it just never happened. Not only was the movie extremely predictable, but the acting was pathetic, the writing was pathetic, the directing was decent at best, all in all, this was just pathetic. There was absolutely no character development at all. There is no way that during the filming of this movie Heather Graham said to herself "This is going to be a great movie!" She was so unconvincing that it was almost comical. I seriously cannot think of one redeeming quality. This is the type of movie that you wait for to come out on DVD, and then don't rent it.

Cool Rumanian thriller that mixes "Rosemary's Baby" with "The Omen." It's about time we had one of these good, psychological creepers! Real sad to hear about David Hemming's death during the filming; they had to use a body double and some facial CGs for the important party scene. Miss Stevens ("Betty") is spiritual and sassy as the real tor/godmother who shows the couple a house by the lake that they cannot resist. We don't see her as much these years as we did with "Girls, Girls, Girls!" and "The Poseidon Adventure," but Stella still works it on the silver screen. Heather Graham pulls her own as the so-so mother-to-be-to-be...

To say anymore would involve spoilers, so I pause for now! Recommended at the very, very least for your autographed DVDs library. This is a spooooooooky flick with some class and a bluish cast. I give it 4 out of 10.

This film is basically a dud. My friends tease me because I think Heather Graham is a fine actress, but she is. Mr. Foyer does a good job, although I could have done without his gorilla feet hanging out of the tub in the beginning of the moviea

The real thrill is seeing Stella Stevens. If you don't know her from the original Poseiden's Aventure, then you might know her from The Courtship of Eddies Father. She's the only reason I sat through it.

Worth less than one watch. All reviews about it being a knockoff to a 1960s hit starring Mia Farrow and John Cassavetes based on a book by Ira Levin are totally on point.

This movie is not a real thriller. The entire movie the camera shows us mundane scenes to creepy music in a way so that we know that something weird's going on. But it is not really scary. And in the end, there is no follow-through. Many different suspicious scenes are showed to us, and often we never find out what they mean. There's very little action, nor explanations, throughout the movie so I had hope for the ending after it had been so built-up. I was let-down. Very little happened in the ending either, and some things did not even make sense. See this movie if you have a crush on Heather Graham -otherwise, it's too dull to bother with. Also, be warned that "evangelists" in this movie are explained to be "evil's agents". Characters get a funny look on their face when twins are mentioned as well. Just a heads up that people might be offended.
