An A-list director. A jaw-dropping storyline. And depraved depictions of suburban violence, 70s fashions and 'sick love'. The result remains one of the most disturbing movies in Hollywood history: Anjanette Comer (The Loved One) stars as an idealistic L.A. County social worker who investigates the case of Mrs. Wadsworth (former '50s starlet Ruth Roman of Strangers On a Train fame), her two buxom daughters, and son 'Baby', a mentally-disabled man who sleeps in a crib, eats in a high-chair, crawls, bawls and wears diapers. But what secrets of unnatural attachment - and sexual obsession - are all of these women hiding? (Verleiher-Text)

The American film The Baby is enjoyable, but in my case it did not live up to expectations. Right from the start, it puts you in a nicely bizarre situation that starts to develop in a quite interesting way, but then it stalls. The action picks up again after a while, only to slow down again. This constant ramping up eventually leads to me not having as satisfying a viewing experience as I had hoped.
