An outrageous cosmic pregnancy nightmare bursting with body horror and anarchic fun.
Mary is a millennial slacker who lives with her intrusive, nosy mother against her better judgement. After a random encounter with a new neighbour at the communal laundry room leaves here pregnant with an alien baby, she has to deal with the consequences – in the grossest ways imaginable.
Combining grotesque practical effects, absurd jokes, and affectionate genre madness, Mum, I’m Alien Pregnant delivers a wildly unconventional kiwi science-fiction horror comedy experience unlike any other. From one crazy set piece to another, the film is a celebration of practical creature effects, hilarious performances, and delightfully offbeat storytelling, harking back to the best cult sci-fi comedies while forging an identity entirely its own. Every outrageous development lands with infectious energy, prompting giggly ‘wtf’s’ as well as genuine affection for its eccentric characters. Joyfully unpredictable, insanely imaginative and irresistibly strange, Mum, I’m Alien Pregnant stands proudly among contemporary genre cinema's most entertaining crowd-pleasers. Bring all yer friends!
