More interesting for its background than for the development of a story whose main reference is the entity Abyzou, the female demon that causes abortions and kills babies motivated by envy of their sterility. There are disturbing moments, especially due to the excellent soundtrack by Christopher Young, which flees from the jumpscares that the director uses to maintain a constant tone of restlessness through guttural voices that contrast with the children's song. The film seems to look at "Rosemary's Baby" (1968), through pregnancy and the attraction of supernatural forces to the new life.

Feels like a 2000s cheesy horror flick, and not a terrible one at that! The "Taker of Children" entity was pretty cool and I liked the folklore backstory. The mortuary setting was a great addition. It was pretty wild at times and entertaining but i'd be lying if I said any of it made sense. The acting is decent, the CGI isn't that bad and the jumpscares are cheap. It's very much filled with cliché horror elements but it had it's enjoyable moments.

Like going to the bulk cinema where you bring your own popcorn bucket and buy your horror by the pound. This generic possession flick is all the more a tragedy because the Jewish Kabal feels like virgin territory that is being clumsily pawed at by involuntarily celeb writers. This film and The Vigil (2019) are both great Semitic horror concepts neglected by telegraphed jump scares and tired cliches that leave us viewers frustrated and unsatisfied. The third act of The Offering is as unoriginal as it is silly, though I did find the twist at the very end enjoyable.
