Trivia
Gary Oldman provides the voice of the fetus monster in the English dub.

Goofs
When Yanka is driving and talking to the monster about her preferred type of men, her car with camera equipment attached to it is reflected in the windows of the buildings.

Quotes
Voix du monstre: What do you like about men?
Yanka: [sighs] Sad eyes. I like it when a man looks unhappy.
Voix du monstre: Unhappy?... I just thought of something. Is a man intelligent because he knows he's unhappy? After all, an animal doesn't know it's unhappy. So is unhappiness a sign of inteligence?
Yanka: [laughs]

Alternate versions
The "R" rated U.S. release is missing much of the gore, and has many scenes in a different order.

Absolutely brilliant twist on the killer baby theme!

'Baby Blood' is a superb overlooked French horror movie that deserves a much wider audience. The beautiful and voluptuous Emmanuelle Escourrou stars as a circus performer who is impregnated by some kind of mutant monster. On the run, her unborn "child" begins to speak to her and demands blood - lots of it. Reluctantly she complies by murdering men she encounters. Eventually she develops a strange love/hate relationship with the monster within her.

This is a brilliantly entertaining variation on the killer baby theme (see 'The Unborn' and 'It's Alive'), with plenty of gore and nudity from the stunning Escourrou. I say steer clear of the American dubbed version as it is cut. 'Baby Blood' is one of the most underrated horror movies of the last twenty years. I thought it was a classic piece of exploitation and I can't recommend it highly enough!
