    THE UNBORN = horror stillborn - stunted scarefest. GRADE: D-minus

    I attended the special advance press screening of this BAD 'horror' movie last week - and I practically yawned through the entire 88 minutes of this Michael Bay produced over-indulgent mess.

    I could not decide if I was either watching a video of underwear commercial/modeling sessions or a comedy horror-flick - what with Odette Yustman prancing around in her tight skimpy underwear, and the scary scenes were at times comical.

    The cast's acting was mediocre at best - even the usually commendable Gary Oldman seemed bored in his role as Rabbi Sendak.

    And let's not even get started on the HORRIFIC dialogue/lines in the movie - who wrote this stuff???

    Anyway, watch it at your peril - I'm glad I did not pay to watch this trash.

    VERDICT:
    Recommended for the most hardcore insatiable fans of horror movies.
    Otherwise, skip it or wait for the DVD.
    Note: At least this movie is better than The Ruins and most of the recent Japanese nonsensical horror films.
