Mexican-born actress Melissa Barrera has achieved the label of one of the best scream queens of the year thanks to her participation in Scream (2022) and her outstanding performance in the horror and mystery movie Bed Rest (2022).
The movie centers on Julie Rivers, played by Melissa Barrera, who after years of struggling to start a family is pregnant again and moving into a new home with her husband as they embrace a fresh start. Upon being ordered to mandatory bed rest, Julie begins to slowly unravel as she suffers through the monotony and anxiety of her new constraints. Soon, terrifying ghostly experiences in the home begin to close in on Julie, stirring up her past demons and causing others to question her mental stability. Trapped and forced to face her past, and the supernatural, Julie fights to protect herself and her unborn baby.
This is the debut feature film of producer, writer, and director Lori Evans Taylor, who is also in charge of the screenplay for the upcoming Final Destination 6, one of the titles that will spice up the horror scene in 2023.
Alongside Melissa Barrera, the cast of Bed Rest (2022) is formed by Guy Burnet, Edie Inksetter, Paul Essiembre, Marina Stephenson Kerr, and Kristen Harris.
Bed Rest (2022) is Rated R for some language.
The movie has had a limited release in several countries and is scheduled to be part of the TUBI catalog on December 7, 2022. Watch its official trailer here.
