Masters of Horror Season 2, Episode 5:
Pro-Life

Original air date: November 24, 2006
Directed by: John Carpenter
Written by: Drew McWeeny & Scott Swan

Starring:
Ron Perlman as Dwayne Burcell
Caitlin Wachs as Angelique Burcell
Mark Feuerstein as Alex
Emmanuelle Vaugier as Kim

Synopsis: Alex (Mark Feuerstein) and Kim (Emmanuelle Vaugier) are medical personnel that work at a women’s clinic. While driving to work they almost run into Angelique (Caitlin Wachs) as she runs out of the woods into the middle of the road. It seems that Angelique wants an abortion. Her father Dwayne (Ron Perlman) is a militant pro-life advocate that wants his daughter back. What nobody knows is that the father of the baby that Angelique is carrying will do anything to protect it.

Thoughts: Have I ever told you that John Carpenter is one of my favorite directors? Pro-Life is another reason why. He does an excellent job with a mediocre script and turns it into a John Carpenter “joint”. I am also a fan of Ron Perlman and he is worth watching here to. The special effects are great and it is wonderful to see Cody Carpenter in the soundtrack department. As far as the subject matter goes, had Homecoming (Season 1, Episode 6) been done like this it would have probably been a better viewing experience. Whatever your views about the subject matter, if you like horror you will like Pro-Life. Questions or comments about Pro-Life?  Contact us!
