review by
Mike Haberfelner

Amy (Angela Durazo) is pregnant from her boyfriend John (Nathan Schellerup), and with twins, too - but she can't let anyone know, least of all him, as she doesn't feel ready for this and, accompanied only by her best friend Rose (Katy Bentz), has an abortion, even if that goes totally against her Christian beliefs.

The day after the abortion, Amy and John, both journalists, travel to a small village in the middle of nowhere, USA, to investigate a legend that's somehow in conjunction with the biblical myth of Adam's first wife Lilith and that has to do with twin births - something that only fans Amy's feelings of guilt over her adoption.

In said village, Amy and John are heartily greeted by the local priest (Danny Wynn) and his sister (Malinda Farrington), who prove to be great hosts but are very evasive when it comes to this local legend ... and then Amy starts to have horrible visions, visions that seem to have to do both with her past that's shrouded in mystery, as well as the future that promises the coming of the AntiChrist. Thing is, she finds more and more signs in the real world that her visions are not just results of her disturbed imagination but part of something horrible yet to come ...

 

Ok, so for all of us not too familiar with the Bible, the mythology The Crossbreed is based on might be a bit on the long-winded side and the way it's brought into the film might be overly complex ... but that all said, this movie is basically just really creepy thanks to an emphasis on atmosphere over over-detailed explanations, thanks to a rich and eerie cinematic language, and thanks to its laid-back pace that really helps the story's horror to blossom rather than throwing it into one's face.

A totally enjoyable little spooker!
