I really do love this moive and pretty much consider it to be a perfect half a Rosemary's Baby double feature. While Rosemary's Baby was about the hell that it is to be pregnant and give birth, this is the hell of actually raising a child. It's a movie about loving your child with all your heart but also knowing that if your child was dead your life would be so much better. For a such a hosed up topic the movie approaches it in a silly and whimsical way but that was probably the best choice. Every part of childhood and raising children is surrounded with this air of fairy tales and myth so it's fitting that this aspect should be treated the same way.

Yeah, having what was going to happen be an unknown really wouldn't work with this movie. The forgone conclusion of what's going to happen in this movie is a horrifying one and alot of the dread comes from knowing the horrible stuff in the book might happen and alot of the tension comes from seeing if the mother will just go according to the book or if she'll be able to resist it.
