Misbegotten is a 1997[1] film directed by Mark L. Lester. It was one of Lester's favourite films in part because he admired the writing of Larry Cohen.[2]
A killer who is obsessed with fathering a child, but has troubles with relationships with women, becomes a father via artificial insemination. He then tracks the mother down and terrorizes her and her husband.
Filming occurred during mid-1997 in Britannia Beach, British Columbia.[3] [4]
The film was rated R when released.[5]
The film received generally poor reviews, with TVguide.com giving it only one and a half stars.[6]
