Brace yourself for an unrelenting fight for survival in Womb, a brutal and emotionally charged horror inspired by true events. Directed by Bridget Smith (Sno Babies, The Retaliators), this disturbing new film will be released on digital in the UK on 28 April, courtesy of Reel 2 Reel Films.
Set deep in the wilderness, Womb follows Hayley, a pregnant woman and recovering addict, portrayed by Taylor Hanks (The Giant), who is determined to rebuild her life. With the support of her fiancé, played by Myles Clohessy (Instinct, Blue Bloods), Hayley embarks on a peaceful getaway to a remote cabin with her soon-to-be sister-in-law, Martha (Ellen Adair – The Sinner, Homeland).
But their escape quickly unravels into a nightmare when Hayley becomes the target of a twisted killer, obsessed with abducting her unborn child. Isolated, terrified, and forced into a life-or-death struggle, Hayley must summon every ounce of strength to protect herself and her baby from the unimaginable.
Drawing on the real-world horror of foetal abduction cases, Womb goes beyond the conventions of slasher cinema to explore the terrifying psychology behind obsession, trauma, and survival. With an unflinching approach and a tense, claustrophobic atmosphere, Bridget Smith delivers a stark and chilling portrayal of a mother’s will to survive against all odds.
Critics have praised the film’s raw emotional depth and relentless pacing, with Overly Honest Reviews calling it “a chilling exploration of the darkest corners of human obsession.”
For those brave enough to face it, Womb promises a gripping, visceral experience that lingers long after the credits roll.
Womb will be available on digital platforms from 28 April 2025.
