The Unborn is a ghost/creature feature. The acting isn't bad, the set is dark, but also not too bad, but the story, it's bad! There is no plot, no reason why what had happened is happing again? The story has no point and no guts - pun intended! A little history or back story could've helped this film greatly. Also the ending was way too predictable! All and all I've seen a lot worse, but that still doesn't help this movie in any way.

I would give this a 4.5 If I was able. Movie left way to much answered, could of really used a extra 20mins for that reason. Was shot very well and acting was good also. I really enjoyed the atmosphere they had for the movie. I'm a fan of movies that take place during a "night shift" at work.
At the beggining I thought it could be a good movie even, but it was not. Actually the story is not so exciting at all, and not even making any sense yo be honest. Someone found an old warehouse and thought it could be a good place for a horror, then went home, ate too much dinner, then fell asleep, had a disturbing dream and the next morning quickly wrote something around it, mixing old horror stories. That is how these stories always born. But to be honest Stephen King was doing it much more better (even after some pretty lame movies they made from his books) I don't even know why I'm trying to find a good horror story or even a movie nowadays. They all used, and it seems these days anyone can make a movie, who have the money for it. I think the "movie factory" should be more picky about what they say yes for.

And not scarying at all. its a one location low budget horror with a strait average cast ,cheap synth score, and not a good story or stunts. this topic has been worn out years ago, the cymbaltic monkey were scary when i, the grumpy old man was young. i shall not doom the days of this film, but im not going to rewatch.

There's no real story, no exposition. The acting was flat in places and over the top in others. None of the characters did anything remotely believable to save their lives. The two guards argue more about what to do, wasting what little precious power their generator had left.
Overall: The movie is an hour and ten minutes. After you fast forward through the scenes of them taking you on a tour of the building like your working the night shift. The movie is about thirty minutes.
Would I recommend this move? I'll keep it clean. H-NO!!!!

As another view commented (and I should have believed him)..Don't waste your time. Worst film ever,
Never seen, nor heard of either director, nor actors - loved!!
Dark & moody, good acting; good directing; super excellent musick choices (background/foreground).
Would love to see more by director and both main actors (especially Manni).
Movie seemed like low budget, but still very effective.
And, some original story plot lines that I haven't seen before (like the low battery-fueled overheads).
Not the best movie in its genre, but would definitely recommend as it's quite good and worth viewing for those that are enthusiasts.
Parts of the movie reminded me of Splinter (2008) & parts reminded me of Last Shift (2014). Just bits and pieces - by no means a copy of either.
Would love to know who put together the musical composition - excellent stuff.

Not great not bad sums it up perfectly. The problem is everyone is an expert and if it has even a single jump scare the pseudo critics and film school wannabes immediately reject the movie. It's maddening that you see so many jerks who clearly have no control over aspects of their lives that they wish they had they turn into professional critics to take out their frustrations on a movie. It's a horror movie just like every horror movie before it the same weaknesses and strengths but for some reason horror movies more than any other genre get torn apart in ways that the tiny picked nits are seized like doughnuts at the first weight watchers meeting. I watch horror movies almost exclusively and being stuck at home I probably watch 20 plus a week this doesn't make me anymore of an expert than those I'm ripping with this but it makes it easier to spot an unreasonably critical attack.

This movie is great to laugh it. And then if you're tired, sleep to it. If I could give it 0 stars I would. This movie is TRASH. The ending was kinda good and that's it.

This movie was so boring, I thought it was three hours long. I kept falling in and out of sleep, waiting on something to happen.
When I read the reviews and realized how short the movie was, I almost fell off the bed. If you can't sleep, turn this on, and it will be like you just took a fistful of Benadryl.

Ugh. Tedious, boring, flat. Joey is the highlight for trying to act in an awful film.
Tough chick with a gun gets old real fast.
Was there a story? Not really.

I thought this movie was okay! The storyline did a good job of keeping me interested throughout the entire movie. The beginning (first few minutes) of the movie immediately grabbed my attention. You'll see why if you give this movie a chance.
Additionally, Manni L. Perez did a great job playing the main character in the movie. It was interesting watching her security guard character. Rest of the actors did a satisfying job playing their parts as well.
The horror itself wasn't scary.. However, there were lots of creepy and intense moments in the movie (which is a good thing). And I respect that.
