Florence Pugh in Malevolent (2018)
Siblings Jackson and Angela run a profitable ghostbusting racket; swindling the bereaved with fake detection equipment and Angela's paranormal 'visions'. Hired to investigate a haunted old foster home, the team uncover its terrifying past: young girls brutally slaughtered, mouths stitched shut; silenced by a sadistic killer. And Angela's on the edge - sleepless, strung out and losing her mind, no longer certain what's actually real; convinced she hears the girls crying out to her from the darkness... But supernatural terrors are the least of their problems when they discover the very real evil lurking in the isolated house.

      Based on the book "Hush" by Eva Konstantopoulos.
    • Goofs
      Aside from certain technologies seen, such as 1980's headphones, there is very little from the actual 1980's in this movie. Most of the fashions, makeup and hairstyles seem very much from the 21st Century, especially during the nightclub scene.

    Wouldn't say this was great, but definitely not bad

    Malevolent, which just premiered on Netflix, is about a phony ghost-hunting crew in the '80s who encounter a real haunted house. I'm seeing a lot of negative reviews for this. Thought it wasn't half bad myself. Sure, it doesn't really do anything new and the story and direction is average, emphasis on AVERAGE. This is a competent film, and I was entertained enough for the running time. The cast is game and sells this. Also, there are a couple of interesting song choices that did catch me by surprise and added to the creepiness.

    • Does anyone know the title of the song that plays toward the beginning of the film and then again toward the end. It was rather haunting sounding and builds as it progresses.
