In the wake of a horrific car accident that kills her husband, Michael, expectant mother Madeline Matheson discovers that her daughter, Grace, has died in the womb. Ignoring her doctor's warnings that the fetus must be removed from her body, a grief-stricken Matheson demands to carry the child to term -- even if it endangers her own life to do so. Curiously, little Grace emerges undead -- and with a craving for human blood.

Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Paul Solet expanded this from his 2006 short film of the same name, which played at Sundance and scored him financing for the feature.
The film arrived during a wave of 'maternal horror' (Rosemary's Baby, The Babadook) but Grace specifically weaponizes the pressure on mothers to sacrifice everything — literally.
