There's a reason why playing God does not equal being God and Adrien Brody and Sarah Polley find out the hard way when they make a little science project/child and it goes all pear-shaped and sideways on them. Excellent, creepy special effects and a good structure, but it gets predictable at the end as it shifts into a rote horror mode. Brody and Polley - who is an underused and appreciated talent - are better than the material deserves, but that's what makes it good.
Score: 8/10. Catch a matinee.
And despite what some people saw, Dren is too weird looking to be "hot" unless you just keep your focus between the neck and the knees.
