The Suckling, also known as Sewage Baby, is a 1990 horror film from director Francis Teri, starring Frank Reeves, Marie Michaels, and Michael Logan.

Story

The film relates the tale of a teenage couple seeking an abortion at a Brooklyn brothel. Following the operation, toxic waste transforms the discarded foetus into a mutant beast, complete with prehensile umbilical cord and hooked talons for hands.[1] Hunting the customers and employees of the house of ill repute, the mutant envelops the house in an enormous placenta and slaughters the inhabitants one by one.[2]

Plot summary

As stated in the copy of one release of this film, "THE SUCKLING has been compared to Alien for its claustrophobic intensity and Die Hard for its non-stop action." Given the film's low budget and technical flaws, discerning filmgoers may disagree.[3]
