Review: Antibirth, terror in the womb

I’m going to agree with Ryan on this one; not as much plot as I would like for the build-up, but Antibirth does deliver in the final act.

I can guarantee that the final moments will give you something that A. you were not expecting and B. you have NOT seen anywhere else!
