Pregnancy

Thanks to Quietearth for the news that Dutch crime-writer and freelance journalist Saskia Noort's thriller novel Back to the Coast (Terug naar de kust) has been made into a film called The Dark House, and there's a new trailer!

The film surrounds the stalking and attempted murder of a woman who chooses to have an abortion and escape her abusive boyfriend and an unknown assailant. Set in an isolated beach house, with brooding weather, the trailer looks like a really high-end Lifetime TV horror movie that has incredible acting and some awesome female characters facing the realities of modern women's reproductive choices (usually sans stalking.) Read on for official synopsis and trailer...

With a limited marketing plan that includes people pushing antique baby carriages around New York and LA with baby bottles full of blood, the amazing female-led horror film Grace doesn't have much of an advertising budget. But the film, in which a pregnant woman (played by Jordan Ladd) carries a deceased child to full term and then... (well, I won't spoil it) is finally getting a theatrical release starting in New York and Los Angeles this Friday, August 14th!...
