The Baby (1973)

What can one say about The Baby?  Well, it's a little bit weird, it's a little bit fun, it's a little big gory, it's a whole lot of camp, all with a mother's loving touch.  Performances, plot and writing are sketchy, but that's all the fun.  Recommended by Frank DeCaro and his movie reviewer, Dennis Dermody, who is John Waters' best friend, so you know it's gotta have an edge.  Shocked there was never a The Baby Part II sequel.  If you don't think you are interested enough to watch the whole thing, just indulge in the trailer below.  Next time you call your fiance "Baby", you'll think twice!

  1. I will never forget you (notice I didn't say 'forgive') for recommending this beauty. Aging raging Ruth Roman in full Mommie Dearest mode, Anji Comer wearing pants suits from Scares & Roebuck, and a twist ending you can see from a mile away, like a magnificent float in a parade you glimpse and then patiently wait to arrive. Three big thumbs UP.
