Mary is a new mother who has lost one of her twins in childbirth. As she struggles with the loss of one of her children, she starts to suspect something sinister is after her surviving child... a supernatural entity that has chosen her child and will stop at nothing to take it from her.
RogerEbert.com by Nick Allen
Still/Born doesn’t get as many points as one would hope for originality. But this is an inspired-enough take on a woman's horror, where the fear of losing her other baby becomes a terror itself, as expressed through an excellent performance.
Los Angeles Times by Noel Murray
There's nothing all that original about Still/Born. But it's sharp and shocking, and parents especially should appreciate how it turns caring for a screeching newborn into an inescapable nightmare.
Screen Daily by Kim Newman
Burke — perhaps best-known as the grown-up version of the scary baby in the last films in the Twilight saga — is outstanding as the fragile, yet determined heroine who is terrorised beyond the bounds of sanity but has to remember that she might be doing all this to herself.

The Hollywood Reporter by Frank Scheck
It does offer a consistent level of tension, a few decent scares and a terrific lead turn by Christie Burke.
