Won Ton Baby! (2009)
8/10
the rebirth of a genre
6 March 2011
Warning: Spoilers
Sitting down to watch this at its UK premiere at the Gorezoe Weekend of Horror I wasn't exactly sure what I was about to see.

This homage to 80's shock horrors like Basket Case and Childs play was everything i could have wished for and then a swift kick in the nuts to follow.

From the start I felt I was watching something that I perhaps shouldn't be. the Low production costs and sometimes shaky camera and off framing made this feel like a very underground independent film, luring me in with the expectation of something gross to come in the final reel Once the arrival of the title character hit the screens I found myself in pain form laughing so hard. having seen promo photos of Baby, what you see on the screen is a fantastic well executed puppet that is far better than I imagined and what he does on screen is both insane and hilarious and I'm sure everyone who watches this will try to impersonate baby's crazy noises, I know I did this is a fantastic horror comedy that gives you everything you could want from the genre. gore, shocks, sex, drugs, a freaky perverted baby, an Elvis impersonator and hell of a lot more.

This is definitely worth watching
