Lullaby (IV) (2022)
4/10
Unimpressive and disappointing
24 February 2023
I watched it till the end, so you could say that it's entertaining enough, but that was about it. Apart from the reasonably creepy atmosphere in the beginning, I wasn't really impressed. Especially in the second half the writers seemed to have lost every focus, the story went all over the place and became increasingly farfetched and hard to relate to. As many reviewers already mentioned: the incessant crying of the baby may have given the authentic experience that young parents go through, but it is almost devastating for the enjoyment of a movie, which, I presume, should be the purpose of the makers. What didn't help either was the mediocre acting, and dito special effects, especially the deformed baby's looked awkward and out-dated. I couldn't put my finger on it, but somehow there was something lackluster with this production, even with the sound. It's a pity, because the premise itself was promising enough.
