The Suckling (1990)

[3]

A pregnant woman and her boyfriend visit Big Mamma’s whorehouse and abortion clinic, where her fetus is flushed down the toilet into a sewer of toxic waste. The critter manages to survive and seek revenge on everyone at Big Mamma’s place, hookers, johns, and all.

The Suckling, also called Sewage Baby in some markets, is bottom-of-the-barrel in production value and has acting that ranges from nearly competent to Ed Woodian. But if you’re looking for the distraction of a deranged midnight movie with glaringly ridiculous lapses in logic, you might just enjoy this trip to Big Mamma’s establishment. The special effects are surprisingly better than average — far and away this flick’s most redeeming quality.

I wasn’t enamored overall — not even in a ‘so bad, it’s good’ kind of way, but I love the concept and the effects work. With better production values and casting, The Suckling could spawn a killer remake.
