A couple’s dream of starting a family curdles into a visceral nightmare when they discover their unborn child is something… other. Part human, part demonic entity, the fetus demands a horrific price for its gestation. The Fetus is a relentless plunge into body horror and supernatural terror, forcing two ordinary people to confront an ancient evil growing inside them while they race against time to uncover its blasphemous origins before it consumes them entirely.

This terrifying vision is brought to life by a cast that masterfully balances everyday relatability with sheer, unadulterated horror. They embody the visceral fear of a pregnancy gone wrong, the erosion of sanity, and the desperate fight for survival against an enemy within.

The Fetus cast list:

1- Lauren LaVera as ALESSA

Lauren LaVera, hailed for her iconic performance in Terrifier 2, delivers a tour-de-force as Alessa, the mother at the heart of the nightmare. LaVera excels at portraying resilient final girls, and here she transforms that strength into the raw, physical and emotional torment of a woman betrayed by her own body. Her performance charts the devastating journey from joyful expectation to paralyzing fear and ultimately, ferocious maternal instinct warped by horror.

LaVera’s portrayal is the film’s emotional anchor. She makes the audience feel every wrenching pain, every moment of skin-crawling revulsion, and the psychological unraveling of a woman who knows she is harboring a monster. Her determination to survive and understand the truth, even as her reality distorts, provides a powerful and terrifyingly human core to the film’s supernatural chaos.

2- Julian Curtis as CHRIS

Julian Curtis takes on the role of Chris, the husband who transforms from a supportive partner to a desperate man willing to venture into darkness to save the woman he loves. Curtis portrays the helplessness of a spectator to his wife’s suffering, a frustration that boils over into a frantic investigation into the impossible truth of their predicament.

Curtis’s performance is a compelling study in escalating desperation. His character arc likely sees him shift from skepticism to belief, forcing him to confront forces he never imagined were real. He becomes the action-driven force trying to solve the external mystery, while Alessa battles the internal one, creating a gripping dual narrative of survival.

3- Bill Moseley as MADDOX

The legendary Bill Moseley (The Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2, House of 1000 Corpses) brings his iconic, unhinged energy to the role of Maddox. A name like Moseley’s guarantees a character steeped in the occult. Maddox is undoubtedly the key to the fetus’s terrifying origins—a cult leader, a possessed relative, or a sinister historian who holds the blasphemous secrets the couple desperately needs.

Moseley doesn’t just play villains; he creates charismatic prophets of chaos. His Maddox will be a terrifying and mesmerizing figure, revelling in the dark knowledge he possesses. His scenes will provide the chilling exposition and ancient horror that elevates the story from a simple monster movie to a mythic battle against a primordial evil.

4- Evan Towell as YOUNG MADDOX & Amy Arena as CERISE

Evan Towell appears as a Young Maddox, a casting choice that promises crucial flashbacks to the origin of the curse or demonic pact, showing how the innocent became the monster. Amy Arena plays Cerise, a character whose name suggests a sharpness or purity; she could be a vulnerable past victim, a concerned friend, or an unexpected ally who possesses a piece of the puzzle.

5- Ariel Yasmine as FANTASY CERISE

The intriguing credit of Ariel Yasmine as Fantasy Cerise suggests a role deep within the film’s psychological or supernatural fabric. This could be a demonic manifestation, an idyllic vision used to torment a character, or a glimpse of an innocent past before the corruption took hold—a haunting symbol of what was lost.

6- McKenzie Shea as DR. SANDERS

McKenzie Shea steps into the role of Dr. Sanders, the couple’s rational but increasingly alarmed obstetrician. She represents the failure of science and medicine to explain the unnatural, her professional composure slowly crumbling as she witnesses medical impossibilities. She is the voice of logic succumbing to terror.

7- Holly Heiser as LISA & Bobby C. King as DAN

Holly Heiser and Bobby C. King likely play Lisa and Dan, friends or neighbors of the central couple. They represent the normal world outside the growing horror, their initial skepticism and concern inevitably turning to panic and tragedy as the demonic influence spills out, making them potential victims or catalysts for the third act.

8- Dalton Rimbert as BRUCE

Dalton Rimbert appears as Bruce, a name that implies a sturdy, perhaps simple presence. He could be a local law enforcement officer dismissive of the couple’s claims, a well-meaning but doomed relative, or even a worker whose actions accidentally facilitate the fetus’s dark requirements.
