There isn't much we haven't seen before, but Seligman has put together a delightful film that is sure to please. This horror-like, anxiety-inducing, claustrophobic and suffocating comedy is just that - a comedy. While it may play out like a psychological thriller at times, 'Shiva Baby' is a witty and fun film that may lack originality, but has plenty of energy and memorable moments that make for an all together confident debut. - Joel Kalkopf
