Malignant - Arvostelut

James Wan’s 'Malignant' is a love letter, and not just in his obvious homage to giallo horror, but to his wife, Ingrid Bisu.

...a curious combination of plodding thriller and spectacular body horror.

James Wan’s latest directorial offering is a patchwork quilt of ’70s and ’80s horror nods...

Brutala mord, ett övernaturligt mysterium och en helt vansinnig final gör detta till en välbekant men ruggigt rolig resa.

Den mest skruvade skräcken på bio just nu.

Like the late, great Wes Craven, Wan knows precisely how to use three-dimensional space -- especially corners, hallways, stairways, and nooks and crannies -- for maximum scary effect.

...the leading contender for the most fun, silly, exciting, unsettling, creative horror movie 2021 has seen to date.

...Malignant has surprises up its sleeve. It gets nuttier and gnarlier as it goes, the script weaponizing an audience’s assumed familiarity with the haunted-house tropes Wan helped re-popularize.

Det er skørt, skægt og ekstremt på samme tid...

Wan viser med det samme, at han kender alle genrens kneb (...), men heldigvis holdes den moderne gyserfilms mest udslidte kliché, jumpscares, på et minimum.
