The acting and dialogue is as silly as the potato sack the killer wears on his head. Go to Full Review
Dustin Putman TheFilmFile.com 02/24/2011
3/4
A low-budget, underseen genre gem that makes up for occasionally stilted dialogue and unpolished acting with a remarkable visual sense and skillful command of building tension. Go to Full Review
Pablo Villaça Cinema em Cena 09/11/2006
3/5
Apesar da trilha de filme barato e dos dez minutos finais de projeo, que escancaram a falta de experincia do diretor-roteirista, o longa bastante eficiente em seu segundo ato. Go to Full Review

Trevor B 10/04/2023 Malevolence was terrible, boring and dragged out!!! See more Trey W @el_wardo 04/13/2023 Bad acting but somewhat redeemed by an interesting plot and story. See more Tyler T 03/30/2023 Look past the bad dialogue and screenplay, this plot would be unreal if remade today. See more Trevor P 03/27/2023 The only thing more laughable than the dialogue is the acting. There are a few movies that deserve a 0%, and this is one. See more steve d 12/25/2022 Some good ideas never come together to make a good film. See more 01/24/2022 Surprisingly good and shot in a way and with a tone that horror fans should find agreeable. After reading up on this afterwards I was glad to see I wasn't imagining the Texas Chain Saw Massacre influence.... also, the house used looks like the Amityville house, which also wasn't imagined as it's the same basic area.
