WOMB Female-Directed Horror/Thriller Explores the Chilling Reality of Fetal Abduction – Available February 11
Uncork’d Entertainment is set to release WOMB, a gripping female-directed horror-thriller inspired by true events, on Digital and On Demand starting February 11.
WOMB delves into every woman’s worst nightmare: the terror of fetal abduction. The film not only offers a chilling portrayal of this rarely explored subject but also provides a deep understanding of the twisted motivations and dark justifications of the perpetrators involved.
Synopsis: Beautiful, pregnant and a recovering addict, 22-year-old Hailey heads to a remote cabin to meet her soon to be sister-in-law. What starts out as a beautiful, quiet weekend turns into pure terror when she becomes the prey of a deranged hunter obsessed with abducting her full-term fetus.
Directed by Bridget Smith (The Retaliators, Sno-Babies) and written and produced by Mike Walsh of Philly Born Films, WOMB features a powerful lead performance by Taylor Hanks (The Giant) alongside Myles Clohessy (“FBI: Most Wanted”) and Ellen Adair (“Law and Order.”)
“The first documented case of fetal abduction happened in my hometown of Philadelphia in 1974. The terror of it has been in my mind ever since I heard that story,” says filmmaker Bridget Smith. “When Mike Walsh shared the script with me, I knew it would make a disturbing movie. Although you rarely hear about it on the news, fetal abduction has happened continually over the years with alarming regularity.”
