CONTENT WARNING: SEXUAL ASSAULT
Devil Fetus does not lend itself to pithy summary - the film refuses the motion of a generic genre plot in order to trace the diffuse and increasingly bizarre manifestations of a vaguely defined family curse, commencing with the shattering of an evil vase and ending with wormy cakes, flying cats, and portmortem parturition. Filmgoers are not advised to grow attached to any character or narrative thread as director Hung-Chuen Lau ravages both with equal abandon - imagine the last ten minutes of Hereditary on repeat for ninety minutes and you're close to the bugfuck energy of Devil Fetus.
