It's Alive

“There's only one thing wrong with the Davis baby...”

Frank Davis (John P. Ryan) and his wife Lenore (Sharon Farrell) are expecting their second child, and the delivery room goes wrong in a way no one at the hospital can explain. The baby is a mutant with a violent reflex, killing whoever frightens it, and it is easily frightened. Larry Cohen puts the Davises in a city where police and doctors already want it hunted down, and Frank has to decide whose side a father is on.
