Atom User Reviews for Malignant
What the hell did I just watch? The best part of the movie was how everyone in the theater laughed together and clapped when the movie was over
Worst movie I’ve seen in a while.
No
It was so bad it was comical
It’s a Great movie! The point of the movie is to be camp, a homage to 70’s horror with today’s technology, which is very evident in the movie. It is not cheesy at all, the acting is good, the effects are great, there is comedical relief through out the film but doesn’t take away from the movie. Suspense is great there is hardly any jump scares, which is a plus for me. The main point of the plot can possibly be guessed, but it’s still a great watch. I would recommend watching this movie over Candyman.... yea. When I think of horrible acting and cheesy script I think of Sharknado, House of Wax, Women in black, even Get Out. This is a movie you want to see in theaters and an easy watchable movie, you’ll leave feeling pleased. one of my favorite horror movies of the year, will definitely buy the dvd and play it every Halloween!
This movie was the worst horror, sci-fi, gore, split personality, identity crisis, comedy, jump scare, great value law and order: SVU, romantic comedy, hopeless romantic, slasher, mullet having ***, movie. It was hilarious at most. This movie has a serious mixture of different genres. And piggy backing on GVLO:SVU...they marked the whoooolllllleeeeeeeee SQIDIDAOD! Like they were storm troopers getting taken out by a creepy crawly Jedi. **** wild 🤣 wouldn't recommend.
Wasn’t great. The storyline wasn’t good. The actors was terrible and this movie is waste of time. Wait for it to go on syfy.
A surprise twist
This movie is a must see!! It’s way better than what the trailer shows. It was a great movie with a great story behind it.
It started off good and it quickly became very cheesy and almost laughable.
its was nice in beginning and worst
The movie was extremely stupid.
It was different for James Wan, but in a creative sense. He did not go down the same path as his last movies, and it was still a win! The science fiction aspect was phenomenal and showed his craft! 10/10 will be watching again!
Not really scary but definitely creepy with a pretty unique storyline. Was it the best I've seen, no, but it was worth a watch. I think it's probably creepier in the theater but this is one you could wait for DVD if you want to save some money.
This movie was actually surprisingly good
I plan to see this again, boyfriend and I both loved it! I love horror movies and am super picky but this one was super enjoyable. There’s funny moments and plenty of “wtf, that’s unrealistic” stuff but if you can’t handle a good dose of that you’re not cut out for a ton of great horror. I can also usually see the twist coming from a mile away in movies but this one got me good, I didn’t put it together until it was revealed!
Booooring and duumb. Also the people next to us ate like bulldogs 😭
First of all. This would never happened.. ever This dude Gabriel was attached to Madison’s head which gave her super natural like strength. I laughed several times. Don’t waste your money on this film.
SERIOUSLY!!! I can’t believe this movie even made it to the big screen. Two thumbs down, negative 5 stars -_-
Not worth it, I wish I could get my money back
i just… i cant… LOL
This movie was very interesting, intense, and horrifying. I would definitely recommend this movie to everyone. IT IS A MUST WATCH!!!
It was so unrealistic even for a movie. It gave me sharknado vibes
More like a comedy
This was by far one of the worst movies I’ve ever seen. The story line was predictable, the characters were boring and the budget must’ve been small. This could’ve been on video on demand or straight to dvd.
To say this movie was garbage would be an understatement. Had high hopes for this, but really wish I would’ve read into it before seeing. Wasted not only mine, but also, my friends time on a Friday evening.
Dumbest. Movie. Ever.
1 Hr and 51 Min of my life that I'll never have back. Who funds this s#*t??
Bad acting and bad story plot
it was so bad I thought it was spoof
Dramatically bad
I really like the story , something different!
James Won a fool for this one lmao
Don’t spend your money on this movie
James Wan hasn’t let me down yet. Movie is interesting from the start and has a spin on it that will leave you mind bottled. If there isn’t a sequel next year like the Insidious’s and Conjuring’s, I will be highly disappointed.
wasn't that scary but still a good movie
Good idea but a bit corny.
worse horror movie
It was good
A friend and I went see this as we love horror movies. So when I say both of us literally LOL while watching this, you know it’s bad. There were moments in the movie that were so awkward from the actors that you couldn’t help but laugh. I only wish I could get my money and time back.
This movie holds up it’s three stars, for plenty of reasons but the main reasons why it will stay at three stars is based on the fact that the actors seemed like amateurs, their acting was that bad, although that was the case for majority of the movie James Wan did leave his popular shots in the film making it bring tension to the viewer, coming in to this movie I knew James Wan said he wanted to do something different with horror and I was all in for it but the difference he mentioned was making his film into a slasher film, he left the majority of paranormal in the locker and came out with something he wanted to try out. Evidently this movie failed, but I still like the concept of the story, even though it needs a bit of tweaking, the movie is an okay movie, it’s something you’ll see if there was nothing else to watch on tv, is it worth spending over $10, no, but is it worth to watch at all, maybe not, but if you’re a fan of James Wan it’s worth to watch it at most, once.
The story line amazing ! Should watch the whole thing before there is to judge.
Horrible movie
Great twist, definitely recommend!
Definitely different than the directors other movies like Insidious and Conjuring, kind of reminded me of Conjuring as far as the "demon Figure" but overall its not the worst and a must see if you're into the horror/creepy type of movies.
was going good until about halfway through.. then it started dragging and the ending... uugghh... I just can't..
Had many twist in the plot, really enjoyed 🙌🏽
Best movie I’ve seen in a while!
It wasn't as bad as people are saying it was haha. I thought it was entertaining.
Very strange film, sometimes quite scary, at other times simply bizarre and often downright funny. Hard to pin down.
Metacritic
Drenched in a Suspiria-like red, Malignant has its remarkable horror moments, but ultimately succumbs to a tale that is more style than substance.
There’s a hodge-podge of ideas going on that don’t always seamlessly fit, but Wan’s homage to ’80s horror and Wallis’s fretful performance, has a bloody lot of guts.
Malignant is messy, chaotic, ridiculous and quite possibly the most insane movie you'll see this year, but James Wan doesn't just know that; he uses it to his advantage.
