Isn't this a loony Christian anti-abortion film?

No, I watched this last night and didn't get any impression of what you're insinuating here.

Why are you saying this?

Then it has an unfortunate title.

The Silent Scream is a 1984 anti-abortion propaganda film directed by Jack Duane Dabner, narrated by Bernard Nathanson (an abortion-provider-turned-anti-abortion-activist), and produced in partnership with the National Right to Life Committee.[1] The film depicts the abortion process via ultrasound and shows an abortion taking place in the uterus. During the abortion process, the fetus is described as appearing to make outcries of pain and discomfort. The video has been a popular tool used by the anti-abortion campaign in arguing against abortion

That's a documentary made in 1984. The Silent Scream movie, which this board is about, was made in 1979 and it's a murder mystery with Barbara Steele, among others.

OIC. I really wasn't insinuating anything. 🤣

He's mixing it up with an anti-abortion documentary made in 1984 with the same name.

It’s a slasher film. Don’t read too much into it.
