Madison szörnyű dolgokat lát. Néha révületbe esik, úgy érzi, egy idegen lakásban tér magához, képtelen megmozdulni, és végig kell néznie, amint egy árnyalak brutálisan meggyilkolja az ismeretlen hely lakóját. De még ez sem elég: a bűnügyi hírek nem hagyják kétségek között: amit lát, az valóság. De mi köze hozzájuk? Miért kell ennyi vért, ennyi kínt és gyötrelmet végignéznie? Ő és a húga is nagyon szeretné tudni a választ. Mert egyvalamiben biztosak: a kegyetlen árnyék őket sem fogja kímélni. (InterCom)

Cronenberg giallo Wan optikáján keresztül? Nagyon fura, a mainstream néző nem fogja magát jól érezni. Nekem tetszett a látványvilág, Annabelle Wallis és a rendező bátorsága, de a csattanó és az abból fakadó finálé láttán inkább a fejemet ráztam, minthogy örültem volna.

James Wan made a movie for fun. He made a horror film about a woman who becomes an unwilling witness to violent crimes, in the style of the B-horror films of the 1980s. He is not afraid of absurdity, even going for the slightly ridiculous at times, but at the same time the film is extremely imaginative and clever, and uncompromisingly his. You may find it terribly satisfying, or you may turn it off in disgust halfway through. But it's definitely worth a try. Because if you happen to be in tune with Wan, you'll enjoy it immensely.

You can definitely tell this film is directed by James Wan, especially in the second half where it really hits its stride. As many have noted, it nods to classic Italian giallo films, which is a nice touch. However, before the story picks up — and don’t expect much logic here — you’ll have to endure a stretch of dull moments that feel surprisingly out of place for Wan.

Pure fun. The trailer touted a completely different film, but in the end James Wan actually made a Giallo purely for fun, but not the 70s Giallo, the serious kind that worked with pretty colours, a classic detective line and a masked killer in a black cloak, gloves and a knife; Malignant is closer to the later Giallo, which used to be spiced up with some completely insane fantasy element. It's hard to write about it without spoilers, but it would be a shame to reveal the film's plot twists. The script is fun because of the speed to which it builds up the plot, which is actually terribly silly and trashy. If it were another filmmaker, you might well wonder whether they are joking or being serious about this kind of film, but Malignant is clearly anchored somewhere in between. It has a lot of exaggerated details that seem downright comedic, which is obviously the intention, and it should be taken as some sort of playful joke with which the director had fun on the set, and which the viewer should also have fun with. That some of the details don’t make sense, it doesn’t matter.

A bland episode of Tales from the Crypt that only becomes entertaining during the overblown Troma-like finale. The problem is that before it tears off the chain, it's preceded by a full-length runtime of sheer boredom, zero tension building, unimaginative gore, slavish Giallo allusions, generic characters and non-existent atmosphere. There's a real risk that you won't even be awake for the finale.
