The events in Searcy's film demand to be taken seriously. The way he portrays them, sometimes, cannot. Go to Full Review

Tells a story worth telling, and does so reasonably well, but while it avoids actual preaching, it's still addressed to the choir. That doesn't make it a bad film, but it could have been a better one. Go to Full Review
Michael Rechtshaffen Los Angeles Times 10/12/2018
The film never loses sight of the choir to which it is plainly preaching. Go to Full Review
Brett McCracken The Gospel Coalition 08/19/2019
It's a slasher film about a bogeyman of a different, more disturbing sort. Go to Full Review
Sr. Rose Pacatte St. Anthony Messenger 12/13/2018
The film may be preaching to the people who already believe that abortion is the taking of the most innocent of human lives, but perhaps it will inform and change some hearts. Go to Full Review

Jan D @Collector Aug 17 Terrible movie. Terrible acting. That Dean guy really needs to retire See more Laura S Mar 9 Excellent movie. Wish it had more exposure since it’s important people understand this subject. See more Stephen H 08/21/2024 Superb movie, tight script, and excellent acting. If it weren’t for the subject, I suspect it would have received more buzz and many more people would have seen it. See more Matthew K 01/06/2024 Great movie. Makes you think about things!
