Jorge Loser Espinof Malefique is a rarity far removed from what contemporary horror movies usually bring, but it is not entirely detached from tradition... [Full review in Spanish] Rated: 4/5 Aug 14, 2023 Full Review Read all reviews

Craig B An okay horror movie with some nice ideas. There are plenty of better movies on which to waste an hour and a half of your time though. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 03/16/23 Full Review colin m Captivating French horror film with subtitles. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 03/30/23 Full Review Audience Member Not terribly scary, but interesting enough to keep the audience engaged. The characters are well rounded, the effects are simple and effective, and the supernatural elements are not forced down the audience's throats. 3 1/2 stars Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/18/23 Full Review Audience Member Malefique is a decent French supernatural horror film. Four prisoners sharing one cell discovered a book which could be the only hope of their escape, but the book contains more trouble than it seemed. It's a little bit slow but you get to know all of the characters and the special effects were magnificent too. Overall a nice little gem to understand the darkest secrets of people. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/01/23 Full Review Audience Member Strange, thought-provoking, and AWESOME! Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/05/23 Full Review Audience Member definitely a good story Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/14/23 Full Review Read all reviews
