First of all I only watched the beginning, as it was enough to know the film wasn't going to be good. The title alone describes exactly what the film is about so there's no mystery. The main lead, Eve, subject of the film title, is heavily pregnant and lives with her servant house husband, who dances in the kitchen while cooking as she swans around busy being pregnant. She's physically too old to be pregnant anyway, and I didn't have to check on the woman's age, just looking at her is clear enough. Someone of her age shouldn't be allowed to donate eggs in real life as this would be faulty and the baby would most likely be disabled. They should've picked a much younger actress to play this role because this woman in her 50's doesn't carry it off. It looks like a joke.

The film's title "My Best Friend the Baby Snatcher" was a misnomer because the film's villain attempted to kill her pregnant best friend, which would have put a damper on "snatching" the baby away from her. The work-in-progress title "Baby Dust" was not any better.

The film began with the euphoria when the two friends, Eve and Penelope, both became pregnant at the same time. But the mood instantly shifted after the miscarriage of Eve's baby.

A major problem with the film was the transition of the character of Eve from a loving wife, friend, and expectant mother into a sullen and a repulsive killer. The murders she committed seemed especially gratuitous, including the kind doctor, the devoted husband, and even her own mother. The husband Tom was a recovering alcoholic, who only attempted to console his wife after the miscarriage.

In the film genre of horror, there are invariably indiscriminate murders. But along the way, there are elements of surprise and suspense. In this film, there was only a deep pathology on display. While Eve apparently suffered through an abusive childhood, the single scene with her mother offered a different take on Eve's character as a monster from the get-go.

The joys of parenthood were on display in the loving relationship of Penelope and Richie. There was an especially touching scene when he sold his classic Mustang in order to finance his wife's in vitro treatments. But that moment was lost in a by-the-numbers "psycho on the loose" scenario that offered exclusively the lunatic acts of a twisted mind.
