Prevenge
Directed by Alice Lowe
A pitch black, wryly British comedy from the mind of Alice Lowe (SIGHTSEERS), PREVENGE follows Ruth, a pregnant woman on a killing spree that’s as funny as it is vicious. It's her misanthropic unborn baby dictating Ruth's actions, holding society responsible for the absence of a father. The child speaks to Ruth from the womb, coaching her to lure and ultimately kill her unsuspecting victims. Struggling with her conscience, loneliness, and a strange strain of prepartum madness, Ruth must ultimately choose between redemption and destruction at the moment of motherhood. PREVENGE marks the directorial debut from Lowe, who is a true triple threat, writing, directing, and acting in the film during her own real-life pregnancy.
A pregnant woman sets out to get revenge on seven strangers in this British black comedy-slasher.
Cast: Alice Lowe, Gemma Whelan, Kate Dickie, Jo Hartley

I loved this...lead actress was hot...just sayin.I would have got killed for sure. Creepy and funny in places
I wanted to like this but i did not main character is creepy and disturbing but can't save it. The baby voice is super annoying and I ended up feeling sorry for her victims that they were killed by such a dumb person. No No No to this movie.
Another brilliant horror comedy from the UK. No-one else does them quite as well. Seeing genuinely new ideas in horror is a treat.
Alice Lowe delivers Dark British humour with a slice (or 7) of bloody revenge. Chefs kiss.
Very skippable.
