‘Lyle’, Cool Concept, Poor Execution.
The idea of Rosemary's baby but with lesbian partners drew me in, and I was anticipating what the film had in store with its reimagining. Unfortunately, it all felt a little too vague to leave an impact.

Gorgeous Melissa Comfort, a wealthy heiress confined to a wheelchair since birth, cries out in her nightmares, terrified of a dream that comes night after night.
