When her boyfriend Ben suddenly dies in an accident, mother-to-be Charlotte (Tamara Lawrance) collapses upon receiving the news. She wakes up in Ben's family home, a crumbling old manor house in the middle of nowhere with Ben's overbearing mother, Margaret (Fiona Shaw), and his controlling stepbrother, Thomas (Jack Lowden). They are determined to care for her, at least until the baby arrives. Grief-stricken and increasingly haunted by visions possibly brought on by the pregnancy, Charlotte accepts their help. But as the days go by and her visions intensify, she begins to doubt the family's intentions and her suspicions grow that they may be trying to control her and her unborn baby. (Home Box Office)

A harmless psycho-terror drama about a pregnant woman whom the family of her deceased boyfriend have imprisoned in their country manor. The film wants to keep the viewer guessing whether there’s something evil, criminal or satanic about that family, or whether they are pathologically worried that the pregnant woman will hurt herself if left unsupervised (her mother was mentally ill). As a result, the psychological terror is very light, almost non-existent for most of the time, which is essentially the main problem of this otherwise harmless film.
