the youtube algorithm threw a creator i'd never heard of recapping a movie i'd never heard of and i never could have expected that plot twist. really giving V.C. Andrews a run for her money, sheesh! great find!
The fact that she kisses "Baby" on the mouth the same way she does her husband makes me think it's not just so she can give him a companion on his level 🤢 and I think Judith is probably on a similar wavelength depending on how she looks at them in the pool at the end
Not every day you find a movie where every character with agency is an unrepentant monster. I was kind of surprised with what happened to Mrs Wadsworth. The younger Wadsworth’s deaths could be argued to be self defense (in states with castle doctrine laws anyway) so seeing Anne escalate to what was unambiguously murder (and a very cruel murder at that) wasn’t something I expected
When I first seen this movie years ago, it made me both laugh my ass off, and then cry because I actually felt very bad for Baby. The man was clearly being used, abused, lied too, and leveraged his whole existence, and just when you think there is some light at the end of his tunnel, it’s only just a huge false promise with him being dragged into an even worse situation and will definitely never truly get the help he clearly needed. Who’s to say that Anne won’t try any weird sexual things with him and her husband too, it’s clearly a depressing story. The one thing that stood out to me was the conversation Anne was having with her mother about not being like Baby’s mom and sisters, when in fact it was just projection and felt like a bad person being forced to look into a mirror when confronting people similar to them. Anne and her mom may not be as bad as Baby’s mom and sisters at that time, but after literally killing them, burring the mom alive and stealing baby, proved she and her mom may be just as bad if not worse. Such a depressing story.
This movie was heartbreaking until the ending, I hated this twist cause throughout the movie, you think that the social worker wants to help him but then she takes him home to stay with her husband. This is just brainwashing both of them
I found out about this movie through SuperEyepatchWolf's video on it and as he says 'this may or may not be a vessel for someone's thinly disguised... Y'know... He also mentioned that apparently Baby's actor is played by the son of one of the producers. I don't know what to do with this information, so now you all get to know it too.
The second it was like "so the baby sitter pull out her breasts and seems to be enjoying it" it cannot be denied this is about a kink. Awesome horror movie though, perhaps for the same reason
Yeah it definitely has strong fetish vibes too. The only difference being the people who play ‘babies’ are consenting and rational adults. But you can also argue this may have been how someone discovered the idea too.
It's honestly funny how many villain female horror movies we have and how little they are talked about. I can think of a few dozen where they are evil step mothers. Mentally abuse or stalk the mc and even in Friday the 13th franchise with motherhood used as horror fuel when it's twisted on an innocent person
I think it's because most people want to see women as purely good, purely sweet. There's something disturbing about a female villain\abuser that society wants to ignore or sweep under the rug. Also, The Hand That Rocks the Cradle has an amazing female villain and everyone should check it out! ❤
Me and my ex got together because we met at a party and both had a weird memory of seeing this film, when everyone else we’d spoken to about it thought we were making it up.
I saw this YEARS ago on late night cable (anyone remember those, late night, nothing to do, up too late, stumble across a bat-$hit crazy movie on cable??) I was hooked immediately and surprised by how much I enjoyed it. For me it's definitive: 1970's "what the hell did I just watch" insanity at it's finest!!
This really reminds me of the case of Genie ( en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Genie_(feral_child) ) and other severally neglected children. This movie came out after Genie's story broke and it touches on a lot of things that happened in that case.
I kinda take issue with the Thinly Vieled Fetish thing. It's more a question of was this thing created as a thinly vieled fetish piece or has that label been applied retrospectively, and we have little reason to believe it's the former over the latter
Well, for more OBSCURE SEVENTIES disturbing cinema, like THIS, I'd suggest Andy Warhol's Bad, The Wedding Trough, and In the Realm of the Senses. There's also a certain 1980 flick called The Unseen that sort of reminds me of THIS one (in that it's another horror film featuring a man-baby character).
Oh my god I was eating while watching this and I actually had to stop cause I got sick to my stomach! I think this hit home hard because my sister has special needs and I help take care of her, but were trying get her to grow and develop as much as possible so jt just makes me sick to think that theres people out there who would take advantage of their role as a caretaker like that! Of course, Baby doesnt have special needs like my sister but the caretaker aspect just really messed with me. Great quality video and horrifying movie!
What's the twist at the end. I remember the movie trailer used the scare the heck out of me. I never went to the movie to see it. I was like maybe 6 or 7 but I remember that scary trailer.
I rented rhis from rhe video store as a young teen and have the same relationship with it as you do...... I haven't seen the film in decades and still remembered the twist.
5:00 Marianna Hill is spoon-feeding ham. She starred in Messiah of Evil, one of the greatest 1970s horror films. I love seeing her in these films. She's so good. She's so creepy and so relatable.
@@kpsy_ and just from my exploration so far, new subscriber and telling my weirder friends. I love someone with real personality exploring these movies I shouldn't watch lol. 😂
I so appreciate that you reviewed this movie. It's one of my very favorite guilty pleasures! I barely know anybody else who has even seen it. Great call.
I found this years ago and had to bring my parents into the living room to watch it. I'd totally forgot about it until this video. I gotta rewatch it lmao
I found out about this movie from Super Eyepatch Wolfs video on horror movies. I have never seen a movie that perfectly encapsulates my primal fear of infantile manipulation. I don't know how to describe it, but it just makes me feel extremely uncomfortable every time I witness it....Great vid tho!
That final freeze-frame is one of the greatest moments of horror I've ever seen. I love watching this film with people who've never seen it before to see the reaction. For most people horror is very personal - some things that may scare or repulse one person may have no effect on another - so I'm alway surprised that everyone has the same look of utter shock on their face. It's really masterful. I love this film for how subtle it is with the audience expectations and then utterly, utterly destroys them without gore or extreme violence. An often overlooked gem.
I’ve heard of this movie before. What culture Horror did a video on disturbing families in horror and this family was mentioned. So I was surprised to find the algorithm recommended me your video.
I had forgot about this one. I saw it way back in the 80s on VHS. In case you’ve never seen it,there’s another oldie it’s black-and-white. It’s called Spider Baby, in case you want to review another old one. I personally love horror movies from the 6070s and 80s well done I subscribed and liked.
Yess this movie was so hard to finish for me, I started it for the 70s cult classic aesthetic because I saw a screen cap on Pinterest and wow it was way more intense than I expected
I remember seeing this on TV when I was about 8. Seeing it again reveals that it's full of obvious kink appeal; at least three categories. We never knew.
A list of films that f'd me up: Funny Games (1997) Hereditary (You know why) The Strangers Unfriended: Dark Web (I was exposed to this way to young and I was still terminally online so I was very afraid of the shadowy "Dark Web") Most of the Saw Movies (another case of shown too young) Cannable Holocaust The Thing (didn't really screw me up but definitely left me to think) Final Destination (Made me scared of my logging trucks, pools, tanning beds, my own shadow, and is the reason I have glasses instead of ever getting any surgeries)
I think it's Funny Games, not Happy Games (not being mean, just want people to find the right movie) Also Final Destination f'ed me up too! I still think of that movie when I see a logging truck!
I RAN to this video because I just made my mom watch this movie. Her jaw was practically on the floor and this is probably the first time I’ve seen her speechless.
I suspected the twist when the husband was described in the past tense. The biggest twist I've seen was in Nothing Really Happens, where the credits roll mid-movie before it explains how the movie messed with the lead character harder than it did the audience
First time viewer to this channel. I saw this movie years ago on, of all places, Netflix (I think) and it is truly disturbing. That ending gets into your head like little else I can think of. :)
Daaayym! UA-cam has been recommending me a lot of small channels with great content lately and each time I feel like I’ve hit the jackpot lol I’m def subbing! ❤
@kpsy_ that baby movie was outta of this world I had to watch afterwards the way u described it word for word had me in awe but loved it..maybe texas chainsaw 1 day?
Thanks for making this! RedLetterMedia showcased this on a Best of the Worst episode not too long ago (and i think it may have even won best of the worst for the night) but they decided not to spoil the ending because for once it was worth experiencing. And indeed i didn't see it coming! I was expecting the twist to be like Baby was fully aware the whole time or something
I first heard of this movie when Super Eyepatch Wolf covered it for his "Why You Should Watch Disturbing Movies" video. It made me very interested in this film. Then the algorithm gods blessed me with this video!
I actually saw this movie on UA-cam a few years ago, I couldn't believe it was rated PG! 70s must have been wild time for movies. It is very disturbing and even though for the time it was PG, I would never show this to any kid!
Wow. That is surprising. It’s rated 15 here in the UK. It’s interesting how some movies have their ratings raised, and some have them lowered. In the UK at least, Mrs Doubtfire was originally rated 12 but was lowered to PG. The Fast and the Furious and The Karate Kid were both changed from 15 to 12A (meaning under 12s can watch under adult supervision). Star Wars was reclassified from PG to U, and Flash Gordon was changed from PG to 12A.
This feels more like one of those low budget exploitation films, a movie just to shock the audience and nothing else. Also reminds me of that one Jaystaion video.
its possible she originally had hope maybe her husband could get better n was testing possible ways through baby, whos a similar case but not through brain damage, but ended up giving up before the party but the actual more likely explanation is that was written before the twist n the writers never noticed the issue lol
I tried to watch this free UA-cam horror movie a long time ago 😢but this flick was to Irving for me to oh I'm a big movie nerd and just found your channel few minutes ago have a good Monday morning
The ending is the most disturbing part given the context. We're lead to believe that the mom is the villain, that she and her daughters are the bad guys and the movie plays the tropes connected with them as such. They even put the social worker through a lot of situations where you root for her to escape and win given how weird things get, only to be thrown into total tonal whiplash when the reveal is she is EXACTLY the same as the family, with her on messed up intentions for the 'Baby'. The 'bad guys' are shown as dirty, perverse, and backwards while out 'hero' is moral, clean, and has a very important, good job. It's all laid out from there that the movie is following basic formulas and for that, it tried but still the ending slaps you in the face because there is and never was meant to be a happy ending. 'Baby' was beyond saving from decades of mental abuse and after the end, second eatch throughs makes you realize that Anne wasn't in shock from what she saw; she was DELIGHTED. 😨
Did anyone else get really emotional when the mom was asking where her "baby" was before being thrown in a ditch with her two dead daughters then getting buried alive? Like I know she's an abusive monster but idk why it made tear up a bit...
Thank you for covering this movie, I’ve always been weirdly impressed by it as well. There are a ton of hidden gems from this era. Check out Jesús Franco’s Venus in Furs, it’s another weird one but it’s visually very stunning.
This is one of those movies I've never heard of and now I feel a deep concern for the powers involved. It's so depressing what this man (who didn't even get a name he's just baby) has and now will continue to go through but who thought of this? Why? It's a concerned thankfulness
Found this by accident. Stayed for the “looks”. Same girl same. I remember seeing this on tape at a cousins house like 10,000 years ago. Well only about 15 minutes of it. I gave the same disgusted, confused looks.
Don't worry darling I think the movie is called. It was disturbing, weird, very artsy fartsy and I loved it. Also black swan as an amazing horror movie too. Very trippy and very beautiful.
I forgot the name but it was that one movie with the evil hand that killed people and the guy didn't know it was evil. I don't think id be afraid of it now, but it traumatized me as a kid.

It's also funny that this super dark movie was rated PG
This was made before PG-13 was a thing. Lots of not kid appropriate stuff got rated PG in that era.

uh totally
Not that thinly disguised😂
There's definitely some diaper kink going on.
Literally anything can be a fetish, Would you think Rocky is a disguised fetish movie If I told you there was a kink for men wearing tracksuits?
Super Eye patch Wolf guesses the same thing in his analysis of the film, so it's definitely not just you!

I love some of these twisted little movies from the Seventies and early Eighties like "The Baby," "The Pit," and Paul Bartel's "Private Parts"!
This "Baby" reminds me a lot on the Anime Miggi and Dali where a Mother also brainwashes Teenagers to be a toddler.

Cannable Holocaust
The Thing (didn't really screw me up but definitely left me to think)
Final Destination (Made me scared of my logging trucks, pools, tanning beds, my own shadow, and is the reason I have glasses instead of ever getting any surgeries)

@@MaliciousBlackBoy 😭😭 I’m sorry!
Being a fan of Ted Post movies, I thought I would give it a watch, this was a few years ago. The ending left me speechless.
Did anyone else get really emotional when the mom was asking where her "baby" was before being thrown in a ditch with her two dead daughters then getting buried alive? Like I know she's an abusive monster but idk why it made tear up a bit...
@@richierichrichardson1463 agreed! I felt some sympathy for her in the scene. Sure she’s not the best mother but she (in a weird way) did love Baby
Oh my god. I was not expecting that. At all and I think now I'm scarred for life.
This is so twisted 😮 it reminded me of the victims of lobotomy, they will become basically babies 😢
@@lealmelisa like… why would you want to change diapers on two *grown men* ? Make it make sense!
Well, that was nuts. Good video.
I watched this movie one night and couldn’t take it 😂Now I know what happened at the end. The early 70s horror films were weird as hell lol
Thank you for covering this movie, I’ve always been weirdly impressed by it as well. There are a ton of hidden gems from this era. Check out Jesús Franco’s Venus in Furs, it’s another weird one but it’s visually very stunning.
This is one of those movies I've never heard of and now I feel a deep concern for the powers involved. It's so depressing what this man (who didn't even get a name he's just baby) has and now will continue to go through but who thought of this? Why? It's a concerned thankfulness
Found this by accident. Stayed for the “looks”. Same girl same. I remember seeing this on tape at a cousins house like 10,000 years ago. Well only about 15 minutes of it. I gave the same disgusted, confused looks.
I'm sold, gotta watch it. Thanks
I just found your channel, this video blew my mind Please please please recap more movies! I absolutely loved this and your commentary!
aww thank you! i will definitely recap more :)
The Baby (rapper) is scary enough.
I don't know how I came across this but that a rollercoaster
Don't worry darling I think the movie is called. It was disturbing, weird, very artsy fartsy and I loved it. Also black swan as an amazing horror movie too. Very trippy and very beautiful.
I saw that movie. The weirdest but coolest horror movie. So cool.
I forgot the name but it was that one movie with the evil hand that killed people and the guy didn't know it was evil.
I don't think id be afraid of it now, but it traumatized me as a kid.
The 70's had some good horror, strange films.
you weren't exaggerating about that plot twist, holy shit
whoof 😮💨 A TWIST ENDING IN DEED!!! Oh my!! These are the horror movies I LOVE.
I loved this movie! Very weird, funny and disturbing. The twist was brilliant.
