The Life Zone (2011)
Three pregnant women are kidnapped from abortion clinics and forced to carry to term. I'm going to date myself here but this reminded me of an extended episode of Night Gallery. This is a low intensity film that thoughtful viewers will enjoy more than one looking for simple entertainment (this has nothing to do with IQ, its more what mood you are in or type of viewer you are). If abortion is an issue that you can't stand to listen to people argue about, this is not a film for you. The 7 months the movie is supposed to span is very compressed and the 3 women take their captivity surprisingly well... nothing overtly stupid and no hysterics... something that will come as a relief for many movie fans. Nice little biting twist at the end to tie things up into a neat package.
