This film review assesses Goody Goody, the debut horror feature from director Raymond Creamer, which follows Goody (Samantha Robinson), a headstrong mother-to-be who insists on giving birth at an isolated forest cabin in winter against the advice of her midwife, Sarah (Colleen Foy). The reviewer notes that the film starts strongly, exploring family tension and the "boho perfectionism" surrounding the birth, but criticises its abrupt shift into a demonic, occult-driven creature feature that undermines the promising groundwork laid earlier.

The review praises Creamer's initial handling of the domestic setup, including a psychologically astute flashback showing husband Jayson's (Colby Hollman) subordinate role and telling details that hint at the family's stifling perfectionism. However, once Goody begins invoking the demon Asmodeus and the film descends into tentacled chaos, the reviewer finds the tonal shift jarring and poorly handled, arguing the transition needed far more delicacy. Goody Goody is released on Shudder and AMC+ from 18 September.
