The idea of a woman carrying her unborn child to term, and enduring a stillborn birth is horrifying enough. Can't imagine what that's like, and hope I never find out. Taking that horror a step further, I can't imagine my stillborn baby coming "alive", and needing blood to survive. Like a Ghoul.
That's what Grace is about; a baby that should be dead, but isn't, and who has a hunger and need for blood to survive. Flies swarm her crib, probably because she's kind of a corpse; she smells foul, as if she were rotting; and she bites her mom's boobie when being nursed... then again she doesn't want milk, does she?
I guess it's bad enough that a dead baby comes back to life, goes cannibal, and is basically like a living zombie if she doesn't get her blood diet, but at the point when she chews half of her moms tit off because "that's just how she rolls", I think I'd have to chuck it off of a cliff.
The Master Says- Grace is a movie that underwhelmed us at first; we had built it up so much in our minds before seeing it, that it couldn't have possibly lived up to our own expectations of it. Still, for all of its faults, Grace really is a morbid and chilling movie, especially if babies scare you... and they should. Babies are creepy, soulless little creepers, who fill their diapers with concentrated evil. Don't trust them.
