Why it’s HorroRated
False Positive is a Rosemary's Baby-adjacent thriller with a contemporary professional anxiety layered over the pregnancy horror premise. Ilana Glazer and Justin Theroux are well-cast and the fertility clinic setting is unsettling. The third act is messier than the setup deserves. Worth watching for the premise and the performances.
