New Zealand filmmakers truly dominate the hilarious world of horror comedy! Before Peter Jackson made Lord of the Rings, he kicked off this wild tradition with splatter classics like Dead Alive and Bad Taste. Later, cult hits like Black Sheep and its upcoming sequel Black Sheeps, and films like Deathgasm and its new sequel, Deathgasm 2, have kept that gory torch burning brightly. However, now, an exciting new entry joins this elite pantheon of absurd horror: Mum, I’m Alien Pregnant.
Outrageous Alien Body Horror
Directing duo THUNDERLIPS are bringing their feature debut, Mum, I’m Alien Pregnant, straight to your living room. The story follows Mary, a messy millennial who accidentally becomes pregnant with an otherworldly creature. As a result, she must navigate skeptical doctors, as well as a useless partner, and her oversharing mother to regain control. Star Hannah Lynch leads the cast alongside Yvette Parsons and Jackie van Beek.
Rave Reviews and Practical Gore
Critics are already raving about this outrageous genre blending after its stellar Sundance premiere! And get this, the film currently holds a spectacular 94% approval rating on Rotten Tomatoes. The filmmakers pack the runtime with gross-out gags, writhing tentacles, weird birthing pods, and a lot of bodily fluids. The film cleverly exaggerates real pregnancy changes into an unforgettable, bloody horror-comedy event.
Digital Release Date Confirmed
Fans won’t have to wait long to experience this hilarious, gore-filled sci-fi ride! Mum, I’m Alien Pregnant arrives on Digital platforms everywhere starting October 27. Horror lovers should prepare for Kiwi horror-comedy perfection just in time for Halloween! Here’s more good news: the trailer has just landed. Watch it below.
