Underdeveloped, underfunded, overacted. A tepid and bland mash-up of a ghost story and torture-porn. The most effective thing in the whole movie is a jump-scare before the main titles. Florence Pugh is OK in it. Celia Imrie is not. There’s so much wrong with this film. Nice locations though…
A very poor 3 on the Skelpometer
Malevolent is available on Netflix, but don’t bother – it’s not ‘so bad it’s good’ – it’s just bleh
