Review

"Although it is frequently found lacking in the depth department, BABY BLOOD makes up for its shallow storytelling with plenty of outrageous gore and sadistic black humor. Alain Robak is far more concerned with the film's intense visual style and moody atmosphere than in trying to explain the origins behind the parasite and its host. The creature's internal dialog creates a number of entertaining moments as Yanka reacts with sudden outbursts of laughter and rage. Robak's kinetic camera work follows Yanka's knife as she buries in to her victims at ramming speed, producing absurd amounts of blood that drench the entire set in the process." - Carl Manes, I Like Horror Movies
