Frank and Lenore Davies have been anticipating the birth of their child, plagued by all the fears that normally haunt new parents--that their baby may be sick or, even worse, may die. But in their worst nightmares, the Davies never foresaw the terror to come when their baby is born and they realize to their horror that It's Alive! Now, the Davies' evil spawn escapes from a blood-drenched delivery room to go on killing spree through an idyllic suburban neighborhood in this cult horror classic.

Critics Consensus: Tough and unpleasant, It's Alive throttles the viewer with its bizarre mutant baby theatrics.

Reviews

Times (UK)

David Robinson

The film is too crudely cobbled together to make much of anything -- even a score by Bernard Herrman.

It skews on the amateurish side, with an intriguing premise compromised by bland characters, awkward dialogue, and lurching scenes.

It's Alive goes from foreboding conversations about pollution to full tilt nightmare rather quickly.

...the picture slowly-but-surely loses its grip on the viewer as it progresses into an often unbearably meandering midsection...

It's Alive is a classic in its own right, having created a new monster, one created by mankind's willingness to ignore its environment and its own lives, something that was way ahead of its time in 1974 ...
