8/10
Great story but a bit slow...

Warning: Spoilers
An extremely conservative and fanatic farming-couple desire to have only boys from their son and his wife, but unfortunately for them, they're blessed with baby-girl each time. They consider this a bad omen for the crop and the well-being of family, because according to these pathetic beings--only boys carry on your genes and the name. Many wives are being sacrificed and so are their unborn--however, the first one has the most horrific story to tell. She conveys this story to another pregnant woman with a baby-girl in her belly--all through hallucinations(what really happened with their first daughter-in-law) and her unborn along with three boys(the farmer's kids).

The movie starts out slow, and till the mid-part, you'd find the story developing really slow. I wouldn't call it a VERY HORROR movie, as there are hardly any scary scenes. Just some loud music effect, and jump scare--which you'll probably miss if watching in a well-lit room.

The pregnant woman doesn't want to sacrifice her unborn baby-girl, and so she fights with hallucinations and farmer's family til she uncovers the real truth and the culprit(murderer son) behind.

The twist is what made me give this movie a score of 8. Without this great twist, I wouldn't have bothered even reviewing the it.

-- Moral of the story: stop killing the unborn baby-girls, villagers often rely on jots his(fortune teller) and kill the unborn baby-girl once they find out her gender. It's Insane. Inhumane. Pathetic. Let's not forget we all came from a womb; a woman's womb--cuz last I checked, males don't have it.
