The vanishing twin in film

Well, a film has been made about vanishing twins, here is the summary:

Olivia and her four friends hold a purifying water fast in her secluded cottage.
Docile and introverted, the girl is easy prey for her deceitful guests, who ridicule her and her vanishing twin -- an unborn child absorbed by Olivia in the womb.
Torment takes hold and Olivia ferociously removes the only palpable link she has with her dead twin -- a tooth lodged beneath the skin of her shoulder.
But discarding it down the drain only brings the horrific past to the surface.
Just as water awakens his hidden life, it is water that will gruesomely take life away.
Watch it on utube

I haven't see the film but it looks like once she removes the tooth (a teratoma or dermoid cyst, they often contain teeth) the memory/spirit of her lost twin brother is revived and comes to her. There's lots of blood and its classified as "horror."

This is not helpful. When are we going to see vanishing twin phenomenon as a natural, very sad process leaving a psycho/spiritual impression, but one that can be healed in a few months of wombtwin work? But no, it must be a horror film. It makes me angry. So negative.
