10 Disturbing Movie Moments That Came Out Of NOWHERE
8. Giving Birth: Birdbox
Bird Box is a brilliantly disturbing movie on its premise alone; the world is overrun by unseen entities that cause anyone who looks at them to commit intensely violent acts towards themselves and others.
From the opening scene, we see Malorie with two young children attempting to survive the apocalypse while navigating the outside world blindfolded.
Most of the story is explained through flashbacks, and we soon learn that the children were born after the entities appeared, as the following scene depicts a pregnant Malorie being checked over by a doctor shortly before the entities appear.
Malorie soon befriends a group of other survivors, and together they remain safe in a large house. She meets another pregnant woman, Olympia, and the two soon go into labour together.
Upon hearing the cries of the two newborn children, one of the newer additions to their group reveals himself to be completely insane, and exposes the occupants of the house to the entity.
For a sickening moment, it seems as though he will succeed in killing the infants, and its only then that we realise just how abruptly this situation has developed and how upsetting it truly is.
