Malum

 Length: 92 minutes Genres: horror





Summary: A rookie police officer takes the last shift at a newly decommissioned station in an attempt to uncover the mysterious connection between her father's death and vicious cult. Throughout the night, she finds herself barraged by terrifying supernatural events while unveiling the truth behind her family's twisted past.

Plot Twist? 

We soon get a bit more exposition in the form of a flashback, where we see the Malum cult inducting a baby into the cult. As it turns out, that baby is – wait for it! – Jessica, and we learn her mum Diane was a member of the flock, before their dad saved them. Many moons later, John Malum – who, we’re told, hadn’t aged a day – caught up with them: sparking, presumably, the chain of events culminating in the movie’s cold open sequence.

Ending: 

the taunting of the cult – combined with the way they were warping Jessica's reality inside the station, causing her to inadvertently murder her mother – pushed her to suicide.

Notes - Thoughts

this footage depicts members of the eponymous cult doing what they do best: placing burlap sacks over their victims’ heads, butchering them, then feeding them to pigs. We also get a glimpse of some viscera, a strange, pentagram-like symbol – written in blood, natch – and hear the cult praying to the temple of “The Low God”

Rating: Loved

Lot was going on with this movie, some parts felt physchological while others we are following a cult yet unraveling secrects from her family. Was such thrilling watch with good jumpscares, plot twist and creepy visuals to keep you locked in!
