This is one of those movies that had a decent idea but executed it like it was a first draft. I think if it had gone through some revisions and fine tweaking it could have been a much better movie. The lead actor was good but some of the other acting was a bit over the top. Even for a cheesy horror. Like, the kind of acting that would be good if it was a comedy, but not for a serious movie like this seemed to be. The music was good though.

This was...a whole lot of something. Just not exactly cohesive.

Low budget horror is a true crapshoot. For every Evil Dead there's a myriad of unmemorable, but potentially workman like, gorefests. Malum is competently made and has some scenes of menacing terror, but as a whole it's just...ok. Genre fans may appreciate moments, but there are better demon-based gore horror flicks out there.

I had a good time with it. It had some pretty freaky moments.

I have regrets. This movie wasn’t a COMPLETE waste of time. It had a few moments. But it was mostly meandering in search of a story and couldn’t find one. So many really amateur low effort jump scares. A few really wild FX scenes but mostly a waste of time.
