(1990)
A cruel circus owner beats and abuses his pregnant wife. One day the circus receives a leopard newly captured in Africa, but the animal soon dies. However, an evil creature that was inside the leopard bursts out of the animal's body, burrows into the wife's body and takes over her fetus. It soon starts demanding blood, and the woman goes searching for victims for her new "baby."
BABY BLOOD works on a lot of different levels. The gore comes quick and thick but never quite gets too campy. The atmosphere of the film really reminded me of Basket case. The performances are all strong, especially from the lead actress, who i think is so hot was superb as the "mother" torn between her repulsion of what is growing inside of her, and her natural motherly instincts. The basic concept of a parasitic or evil fetus may not be an especially original one, but BABY BLOOD does more with the concept than any film I've seen since ROSEMARY'S BABY. The only real gripe I had with the film was that it would sometimes switch from English to French dialog mid-scene for no reason - but this only happened a few times and didn't ruin the overall feel of the film. I HIGHLY recommend picking this one up if you dig more "extreme" horror fare. Click the link below to see a gif from the movie Due to partial female nudity i didn't post it directly on clad.
