Opening this Friday is âThe Unbornâ and itâs written and directed by David Goyer (âBlade: Trinityâ, âThe Invisibleâ, co writer of âThe Dark Knightâ). The movie is a supernatural thriller that follows a young woman pulled into a world of nightmares when a demonic spirit haunts her and threatens everyone she loves. Odette Yustman ("Cloverfield") stars as the woman and Cam Gigandet (Twilight) plays her boyfriend.
Hereâs the synopsis:
Sometimes the soul of a dead person has been so tainted with evil that it is denied entrance to heaven. It must endlessly wander the borderlands between worlds, desperately searching for a new body to inhabit.
And sometimes it actually succeeds.
Casey Beldon (Odette Yustman) hated her mother for leaving her as a child. But when inexplicable things start to happen, Casey begins to understand why she left. Plagued by merciless dreams and a tortured ghost that haunts her waking hours, she must turn to the only spiritual advisor, Sendak (Gary Oldman), who can make it stop.
With Sendakâs help, Casey uncovers the source of a family curse dating back to Nazi Germanyâa creature with the ability to inhabit anyone or anything that is getting stronger with each possession. With the curse unleashed, her only chance at survival is to shut a doorway from beyond our world that has been pried open by someone who was never born.
