The story

What Is It’s Alive About?

The premise of It’s Alive without spoilers.

A foreboding warning—‘Please be quiet. Do not wake him up.’—sets the tone. When graduate student Lenore Harker discovers she’s pregnant, she abandons her studies and moves with her boyfriend Frank to a rural home. Their hopeful new life quickly spirals into horror as animals and people are found brutally murdered, each death inexplicably linked to their newborn child.
