Ross Partridge (Lamb, Room 104) directs Birthrite, a folk horror which centers on a woman named Maya (Alice Kremelberg) who inherits a home from an estranged aunt. A seemingly idyllic chapter with her girlfriend (Juani Feliz) and their unnborn child gradually turns into a nightmarish existence for Maya and her loved ones.

Although Bruce Purkey says the lead actresses are both “really good and engaging,” he claims Birthrite simply is a trope heavy narrative that may remind viewers of Rosemary’s Baby and The Omen. “I wish the story would have been a little more unique or daring,” said Purkey who rated it 2.5/5 stars. “Nothing exemplary here.”
