MALUM is a bold and expanded reimagining of the 2014 horror cult classic, LAST SHIFT. On a search to uncover the mysterious circumstances surrounding her father's death, a newly appointed police officer, Jessica Loren (Jessica Sula) is assigned to the last shift in a decommissioned police station where a notoriously vicious cult saw their demise years prior. The lone officer at the station, she soon finds herself barraged by terrifying paranormal events, and in the process, is taken on a journey during which she learns the shocking truth behind her family's entanglement with a demented cult leader. MALUM takes the premise of the 2014 festival hit and flips it on its head, thrusting viewers into an unrelenting, adrenaline-fueled, bloody cult nightmare.

Critics Consensus

Malum lures you to clock in for another Mason-esque Last Shift at a haunted police station with sheer blunt lore and gore.

[DiBlasi] doesn’t have much sense of how to parse this hackneyed occult screed into sequences with any true tension...

Rated: 2/5

"Malum" is [most] impressive when it turns its talented ensemble cast loose on material that was obviously a lot of fun to play with.

Rated: 3/4

Austin Chronicle

Malum has enough budget to be too glossy to be gutter fun, and adds little visually much beyond some very mediocre practical effects, often feeling that – yet again – its ambitions outstripped its grasp.

Rated: 2/5

Malum does offer plenty of frights and thrills. It somehow manages the impossible of not only being a decent remake, but also doing something different as well.

I liked the new theatric feeling, higher quality resolution, and bigger budget. But it failed to deliver many scary scenes. They had room for more creepy scenes and the antagonist didn't look as scary as in the original.

I went into this blind. All I saw was the trailer & knew it was a remake type movie of the Last Shift. Trailer didn't even look that good. So went in with low expectations. This will go down as a highly underrated movie sadly. Theater was pretty empty. The opening & ending was shocking. I'd say this is more of a psychological horror rather than a straight up horror. Only a few jump scares but you could tell when it was going to be one of you watch horror movies at all. It was creepy, had Silent Hill & Outlast vibes. If you've played those you know the feel. I will buy this on Blu-ray when it comes out.
