G'day, i'm the co-writer and director of Surrogate, thanks to everyone who enjoyed my film and commented. Regarding darkness it's likely the transfer to RUclips, when it screened in cinemas the night scenes looked great and there is plenty of contrast in the grading to see all the images.
I thoroughly enjoyed this film. Great plot and the backstory was good enough to keep me guessing and interesting enough to support an emotional ending. The acting was perfect!! Really great actors too. The mom and daughter played great. Congratulations on making a bad ass movie. Please let me know what other works of art you have produced, I'd love to watch or listen to them Thank you for the awesome film. Most genuine writing and acting. ❤❤❤❤❤
This movie is a gem. With better sound effect and CGI, this can be in the top list of horror movies. By the way, horror movie doesn’t mean lights have to turn off all the time. 😂
Absolutely brilliant movie, honestly kept me captivated the whole time. Very impressive and should be very proud to have been part of making such an amazing concept and movie. Well done. I'm a huge fan of these types of films and was running out of good one's to watch and this one was definitely was not a disappointment.
Mary Tudor is the most famous case, where She had all the hallmarks of pregnancy come to full term and even went into labor, with no child in the womb.
Its a unique film and i like it SPECIALLY because the ending isnt a happy one, making the protagonist look like all other women, and not the chosen one who could defeat the evil because she was smarter or worked harder or was luckier than the rest. I like that in a movie. The realistic touch.
I am glad i watched this gem, i didnt know anything about it other than the title, it grabbed me right away with the excellent acting and directing. Very good Aussie movie. 👏
I was so wonderfully enrapt by this movie. I LOVED the different ghost/psychic mythologies, PARTICULARLY the "left and right mirrors." WHERE did you come up with that idea, because I want to use it in a story! Also, making the psychic a child with a knowing father is absolutely a tour de force. You have made an EXCELLENT film here; five stars!
That comment doesn’t make any sense in relation to what I think you re trying to say 😂😂😂😂 and also are you in any way qualified to be handing out stars ??
if you are a mom innocent of accusations, you do not have to allow any social worker into your home. a one time check without incident is enough. and if your child tells you that they are being harassed at night or wherever You as a parent better believe them. keep watch over your children. they are very susceptable to the spirit world.
It's illegal for the government to search a person's home without a warrant but being Native American, Latino or black is concern enough I've been told. States consider themselves beyond reach of practicing the Constitutional law like Southern states thought they didn't have to treat everyone free and equal before the Civil War.

Oh that was very, very good, well done Australia. A dark brooding film that pulls you in from the start and releases you only at the very end, and oh the end.
I'm a bit amazed, that there are this many positive comments. Not to be mean, or to step on anyone's toes, because I appreciate how difficult it must be to write, direct, act, film and edit an entire movie. I haven't seen all yet. Stuck at the first hospital scene after the "abortion". First advise: make sure your got your facts straight, from a reliable source, when you want to make a scene that is connected to a real profession or trait or statement. There will ALWAYS be people who really know what it's like to work a certain job, and that will watch your movie. Someone who lost THAT much blood and afterwards just lay there with NO transfusion bags for just liquids, leave alone blood???? An abortion this out-of-hand and no sedation or anaesthecia?? Ri-di-cu-lous to anyone that works in that field. For me, the story looses credibility immediately. After that, I personally can't get really get into it anymore because it's just so silly. And that's what I mean. I find the acting mediocre. It would be more believable if the little girl showed more emotions, as she visits her mom in hospital. She must have seen all the blood, and the pain her mom was in, as she was rushed of to hospital. She would be upset. Dr Anti-Abortion is a wuss. The patronising way the lady from child protect services talks to her is disgusting.
wow. You need a hobby or something better to do than try to fool people into thinking you're intelligent in RUclips comments. Your comment is silly. I'm sorry you aren't wise enough to know the level of stupid you displayed here!
This was damn near brilliant! I thought it may be weak because the horror lay only in being accused of what you didn't do, but oh - there's so much more!
Wow. This was good. There is such a powerful love between a parent and child. Excellent work on this film…. Story , Acting , the way it was shot , everything…. Well done ! Much love to all from Huntsville, Alabama,USA 🖤👻🎃
47 minutes in & I'm really enjoying this,it gives you enough to keep watching..Thankyou,I haven't been able to get into any films recently..but this one I am enjoying so far.. Hope Everyone is keeping well,have a nice day/evening & take care ☮🦋💜🐞☮🦋💜🐞
This movie reminds me so much of one missed call with naughty arse child but also of the american version of dark water and the Mom. If you've seen either of these movies and liked them, you'll appreciate this one!!! A mother's love is everything when it comes to protecting their child/ children!!!
Awesome movie. What I loved the most is the medium girl has awesome support of her father which that is incredibly rare. I've always said I'm not jealous or envious. As I have those gifts because I am very sensitive to the spiritual realm and experienced such events like this myself in my lifetime. I'm envious of her, no one believed or supported me. She is very lucky. Turning to old paganism craft to protect myself from these entities has kept alot of possessing entities like Lisa away from myself and my children who have inherited my gifts. Phantom pregnancies are real. And should never be taken lightly. Should always dealt with immediately..
Can only say one thing; scared the Bejesus out of me! Is this based on a true happening? It is believable but on the other hand ...... who's gonna believe it?
Did It Really Scare The Bejesus Out Of You?! (I Havent Heard That Term In A Long Ass Time Lol) You Must Get Scared Easily! I Didn't Think It Was That Scary At All, But Everybody Has A Right To Their Own Opinion. I Actually Haven't Seen A Good Scary Movie (that actually scared me) In A Long Long Time, Like In Yearrrs. Im Still In Search For A Good Scary One. I Cant Remember The Last Time I've Watched A Scary Movie That Really Scared TF Out Of Me. I Do Love A Good Horror, Thriller Film 🎥 I Need To Find A Good One, If Anyone Knows Of A Good Scary, Horror One LMK!! 👍
@@sonita79wow nobody here asked for your opinion ..clowns like you think that they are the only real connoisseurs of horror movies while the rest of the world is dumb and scared shitless ..I mean how dare them peasants feel scared of horror movies when me the reigning queen of the horror genre critics did not find it scary at all ...well you wanna get scared then these fictional movies with fictional demons and ghouls are not what you should be wasting your time on..why don't you go alone in the midnight when everybody is asleep and spend the entire night in a completely isolated area of your town which is atleast 10 miles away from civilization.. ...you will be surprised to find that humans are way more scarier than ghosts when they decide to take advantage of self proclaimed bravehearts like you who are the victims of their own hubris ..Me and so many others who are scaredy cats as per your opinion would love you to record such an experience so that we can also & see pp vicariously live it with you
I haven't seen alot of Australian films (I'm in the uk) but I have come across a quite a few on here and I must say, well done Australia your films are bloody good! 🍻 here's to the next one! If anybody has any recommendations please let me know 👍
Aussie movies are unique and well made, loved watching this movie and another called “the grove”, cinematography is awesome. Australians should start making mainstream cinema in Hollywood
This is a great movie. Acting is so on point and the scenes were really good. P.S. I also watched the making of Surrogate. Highly recommended. Kudos to the all the staff.
I got it but only to the ending. I think that girl is the lady’s daughter the one who Natalie visited at 1:05:25. I guess her daughter wanted Natalie to be her mother instead, because she might be better than her real mom.

Great movie mate. Thank you!
Great Movie, kept you guessing ...
The psychic girl and her father need their own movie!!
Agreed, we'd love to expand on their world and have a few ideas!
They weren’t very helpful were they?😊
I second that ❤
Brilliant idea
This movie is a gem. With better sound effect and CGI, this can be in the top list of horror movies. By the way, horror movie doesn’t mean lights have to turn off all the time. 😂
fr the low budget d rated movies are always dark n can’t see anything
Its a struggle to find a decent horror movie these days. I appreciate coming across this one. Well done.
NOT IS THE DARKNESS !!!
Don't you know it DOES NOT HAVE TO BE such a BLACK-OUT !!!
With the proper lighting expertise !!!
I agree with you, it's definitely hard to get a good scary one
Literally one of the best horror movies ive seen in 20 years. Wow.
So true it’s awesome
I didn't think RUclips could recommend a masterpiece such as this.. loveeet ❤❤❤
Thanks!

Mary Tudor is the most famous case, where She had all the hallmarks of pregnancy come to full term and even went into labor, with no child in the womb.
She looks evil, maybe the kid was scared of her (if it’s even a female) 😆
Never heard of this case but will research it!
@@DavidWilling yes I'll check it out myself🤔
There was a case where a man was married 5 times and had a total of 12 kids. Eight girls and four boys. But, he was a android🤷🏼.
Don’t believe everything you hear. Hospitals use all sorts of medical devices to examine pregnant women🤷🏼.
Great Aussie movie. Our movies are so bloody underrated. Look at the likes of The Tail Job or Convict. They were just two others that were great too.

Awesome! Awesome movie! Thank you for posting. I love paranormal movies 🍿😮😊👍🍿
No clear explanation for the incidents and no way title connected to the story
Great movie, very scary and amazing actors. Love from Sweden 💛💙
I recommend everybody watch this movie such a good psychological emotional and scary film such a good feeling wow
In lingua straniera non ci capisco un cacchio!
Good feeling you say 😢
Yes I am Indian
The innocence and normality of the characters makes it very hard to watch.. im from NZ which neighbors Australia so it definitely hits home..
if you are a mom innocent of accusations, you do not have to allow any social worker into your home.
a one time check without incident is enough.
and if your child tells you that they are being harassed at night or wherever You as a parent better believe them.
keep watch over your children.
they are very susceptable to the spirit world.
To the spirit world? What? Can you tell me more I just I'm sorry it's hard very hard for me to believe in ghost and all that.
This is horror movie.
It's illegal for the government to search a person's home without a warrant but being Native American, Latino or black is concern enough I've been told. States consider themselves beyond reach of practicing the Constitutional law like Southern states thought they didn't have to treat everyone free and equal before the Civil War.
And susceptible to CPS.

Really good Aussie actress, need to see more of her, enjoyed the movie, although it's a little bit too in the dark

Watched From South🇿🇦Africa... Very Good Movie... Absolutely Loved It...
Thanks for watching!
What a beyond Great Movie!!!! I was captivated till the end!!! T Y Sir!!!
This waa really good! A unique angle on the haunting genre and i really did feel for the characters which is so rare for me. Surprising!
This movie reminds me so much of one missed call with naughty arse child but also of the american version of dark water and the Mom.
If you've seen either of these movies and liked them, you'll appreciate this one!!! A mother's love is everything when it comes to protecting their child/ children!!!
One missed call had one my favourite fist half of a movie, the idea of getting the phone call with yourself dying was scary.
Very very good movie ..GOOD ACKTING
Almost Hollywood worthy! Really good movie! Thanks!
You’re welcome Joyce, thanks for watching!
I think I am a psychopath 😅😅😅i really love horror movies ❤
This movie is worth watching,really enjoyed 😊
All r not psychopath whoever love horror, comedy, etc
This was an fantastic movie to watch. The ending was a twist from what i expected.
Awesome movie. What I loved the most is the medium girl has awesome support of her father which that is incredibly rare. I've always said I'm not jealous or envious. As I have those gifts because I am very sensitive to the spiritual realm and experienced such events like this myself in my lifetime. I'm envious of her, no one believed or supported me.

Turning to old paganism craft to protect myself from these entities has kept alot of possessing entities like Lisa away from myself and my children who have inherited my gifts.
Phantom pregnancies are real. And should never be taken lightly. Should always dealt with immediately..
