Virginia Marshall's (Brooke Adams) last hope to conceive a child lies with fertility specialist Dr. Meyerling (James Karen). Although Virginia, along with her husband Brad (Jeff Hayenga), is delighted when she gets pregnant, she comes to think that there's something unnatural growing inside of her. And that Meyerling, a geneticist by trade, has something to do with it. She has a breakdown on a national television show and is convinced her baby is a monster. Is she as nutty as a fruitcake, or is Meyerling implanting super-babies in women's wombs?

Verdict: You could call this, say, an examination of baby hatred but the movie has absolutely nothing on its mind. *.
LOL@Bill. But I still need to see it, as I love Brooke Adams and she never works anymore! (Isn't she married to Tony Shalhoub?) Invasion of the Body Snatchers is one of my all time faves.

Adams is indeed married to Shalhoub for the past nearly thirty years -- amazing! She is still acting, she just has a low-profile career these days. She appeared a few times on her husband's show, Monk, which I enjoyed, along with Wings.
