Plot synopsis:
Herma Frigg (Sam Bangs), a pregnant woman running from a bad relationship, becomes possessed when she puts on a magical ring she discovers in the basement of the house where she is housesitting.
Haunted by stranger dreams, she sleepwalks next door to visit Peter O’Neill (Leonard Hoge), the pre-teen horror movie buff living next door in her sleep. As Herma’s body transforms and her mind deteriorates and Peter deals with family drama, these visits lead to an unusual bond between the two. But can Peter find a way to help Herma find a way out of her predicament and save her unborn baby?
Reviews:
” …I found Exorcism in Utero to be an enjoyable watch although I can understand a lot of viewers having a different opinion. I liked its overall WTF tone and refusal to be coherent and entertaining in a Jess Franco kind of way, though unfortunately lacking a nude Lina Romay. If you’re looking for careful plotting this won’t be for you, but if you’re in the right mood, or have taken the right edibles, this could be a fun watch.” 2.5 out of 5, Voices from the Balcony
