Surprisingly incoherent and boring

A waste of 90 minutes of my life

The joyful confection is coated in a sparkly gloss, bright enough to gleam from the darkest, most cynical corners.

Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.

This is one twisted movie! I don't care how true the stories is, who in their right mind wants to sit and watch a film about a crazy mother who picks off her young children one at a time? This film was just so disturbing on so many levels, that I had to turn it off. I can't believe that a studio would actually produce something like this! Besides the horrifying plot the film goes way over the top with the blood and gore, as if the story wasn't disturbing enough. As for the acting, well it's about as horrific as the storyline, I honestly think the children may have written some of their own lines. If that wasn't bad enough, the film is shot in a way that looks like it was produced at the dawn of color television in the 1950's, and being that most of it takes place at night, you could hardly see what the hell was going on half the time. This was one of the worst movies I have seen in a very long time and I don't think anyone in their right mind should waste their time on it!

I never noticed this flick not even by it's other name Baby Blues but a friend in the UK told me that it was worth watching. Well, in fact it was. So called based on true events this flick surely isn't for the weak at heart. Not that it is gory or that bloody but it concerns children. In the seventies it was common to shoot children or give them a good beating in films. Today's standards don't allow that kind of cinema anymore. But still some directors aren't afraid to show a child being slaughtered. Lars Jacobson, the director did a good job, this being his first effort. The way he used some shots were nicely done. It all involves a woman who has to take care of her children. Her husband is always on the road so she has to do it in fact on her own, but she can't take it. Slowly she turns into hatred towards her offspring. One evening at dinner she goes bonkers and things go heavenly wrong. What a great performance from Colleen Porch (Transformers, Starship Troopers 2) but also from the young ones. A flick overlooks from the geeks but worth a look.

Like many horror fans, I spend a lot of time wading through the proverbial garbage that saturates the genre, in search of those hidden gems. BABY BLUES is just such a find. Beautiful cinematography, a tight script, and some really solid performances make for a terrifying journey into a child's worst nightmare. My biggest question is, why has it taken me so long to find this flick? It seems to have completely slipped under the radar. This film is 10 times better the most theatrically released horror films. If you are a horror fan, or just a fan of great independent cinema, I strongly recommend you check this out!

This movie was good, but it could have been so much better. It could have been the SCARRIEST MOVIE EVER!!! What could be scarier than your own mother loosing her mind & coming after you to kill you & brothers & sisters. The film was shot well & the acting was good (the mothers acting was VERY good) The filmmakers did a good job of keeping me on the edge of my seat, but I do think they fell short in couple of areas. The mother's transition into madness was not done well. They should have spent more time letting us get to know her, (though I did like talking in the mirror ala Travis Bickel in Taxie Driver) The other thing that DROVE ME CRAZY was the children's lack of reaction to deaths of the their siblings!! If you see your brother or sister killed by your mother, you would not only be scarred, but HORRIFIED!! The filmmakers also did not give us chance to feel the lose of children we had gotten to know. When each one was killed, we just moved on to the chase, like a tired Friday The 13th sequel. But despite it's short comings, I was still on the edge of my seat throughout last half of the movie. It's definitely worth checking out.
