- From the director of The Conjuring and Insidious and Saw and The Conjuring and The Conjuring, it's...MALIGNANT! The scariest of the year if you're a Warner Brothers executive. Is the entire movie one big joke???? That's not rhetorical; we really don't know.

“If laughter could cure cancer, this movie could cure itself.” Holy shit
Mike and Jay are philosophers more than anything else
That joke was so brutal it cut off this movie's arms, severed it's spine, and shoved it's second brain into its skull.
jay's intro flowed better, but mike's was funnier
Norm Macdonald resurrected

At the end of the day, Malignant is about family members who have each other’s backs.

Yeah, going to need a citation on that
When they pushed Gabriels face into the back of her skull and you heard the faint "NOOooooOooOoOooo" i lost it.
I haven't seen the movie yet but I pray it's just the cut audio from vader at the end of revenge of the sith. This is the first movie in a long time I'm really looking forward to
@@davidhudson893 I haven't seen Malignant, but when I read their comment, I also heard Darth Vader screaming 'NooOoOOOOOooOOo'
I was laughing too hard to hear it when they put his face into her skull.
oh god i didnt notice yhat
Olay, I rewatched that bit a billion times and I think the "no" is from the scene directly afterwards when Madison is screaming
“Why are you pregnant, stupid?” I hope a man says this to me one day. So romantic 😂🥰
x)
Hahahahahahaha
Why are you pregnant, imbecile?
Hey, Lyra, why are you pregnant, stupid?
My father actually said this while my mom was pregnant with my younger brother.
Yes, we’re Texans, why do you ask?
Really loved the part where Gabriel says “dumb bitch doesn’t even know I’m living in her attic”
I like how that was more true than we thought
What got me more was the he said ‘nesting’ and I almost laughed in the theater hearing that
Rent free!
When he said “nesting in her attic” I died.
Honestly the joke's on Gabriel... Over 30 and still lives in his sister's attic.
I found that James Wan himself said that he wanted to make a movie that was akin to what you would find in the far back shelves of a video rental shop in the 80's.
He sort of achieved that. Although instead of the back shelf, it’s the bottom of the trash can
He almost got it .....
@@chazikstan so samurai cop?
@@chazikstan this is objectively better than most videos you'd find at the rental store sir
“It has to be seen to be believed” is probably the most honest marketing they did for the movie
"Mike pitches scenes that make the rest of the movie better" is my favorite show on the internet.
Started off as a scene that would've improved the movie if it were serious, then ended as a scene that would've improved Malignant.
I'd love if there were a no budget CZcams movie channel that exclusively filmed Mike's script ideas
"Mike ironically pitches scenes that are as choc-full of cliche as physically possible" more like
@@tinman3747 which is why the bit makes my sides hurt every time.
@@tinman3747 The Inside (from the video Mike Pitches a Horror Movie) is my all time favorite example.
Then of course, uhh... boy in the walls. There's a boy in the waaaaalls!!
"We should really call him Gabriel, since that's his name"
8 seconds later "so anyway when the detective is chasing Bagool"
I had this same thought. Made me mentally giggle.
Apparantly Madison's quaint two story colonial home has a giant industrial fan on the back side of it running 24/7. That woman's electrical bill must be enormous.
be respectful....I can't imagine how many hot flashes she gets from her nonstop pregnancies
also I think is the same fan they had in that garage scene with the cops
@@javsandarts It looks like another smaller fan but that's still funny. This director's just putting smoke and giant fans in every scene to add "atmosphere."
Omfg true, what’s up with the huge industrial fan? 🤣🤣
I thought he might be living in her attic but I knew he had to be elsewhere because of the fan. That’ll show me.
I'm with Jay on this one. After Malignant, I - for the first time, - actually care what James Wan does next.
Same. It feels like Wan could throw a curveball at any moment.
I hope he tries buddy cop movie next.
Why do all the guys sharing this sentiment look a like?
@@macheetah49 Thanks, I've always considered myself a bit of a pumpkin.
Not me. James Wan basically said, "hey, let's combine wacky martial arts choreography with violent horror", which in that case, I'd have rather watched a horror flick followed by a martial arts flick. He half-assed two things IMO. :-)
When Gabriel threw the chair and sniped those cops, I completely lost it.
he had impeccable startup and form, it was crazy because I started rooting for the guy at that point
Read this as they played that clip and nearly spit out my drink laughing
Good Shit!
Yeah he was leaving anyway. Just had to add insult to injury which I can respect.
K O B E
"Maybe you need to stop getting pregnant" is one of the most hilarious lines in a movie I've ever heard, holy shit
I cracked up so hard when he said that. It was HILARIOUS!
maybe he should step up his pullout game
It's like doing a "Yo momma" joke on your brother.
@@EmperorSigismund Hey, that's a favorite passtime of my brother and I
"how many times do i have to watch my baby die inside of you?"
The best intro is clearly Mike's at 12:00-
"I’m a grown-up, right? I’m not in junior high school. I understand, like, square footage on homes, and my eyes can see, and I think about stuff."
This should be your intro to everything.
Gabriel was the key to all of this. Seriously he was one of the most enjoyable horror movie monsters in a while.
Reminded me of Freddy before he got too funny.
Ghostface from scream

....if we get gabriel working...
I felt bad for him.
"This movie is the stupidest thing I've ever seen, makes no sense and it's baffling that a major studio would put it out there. So anyway I have tremendous respect for the director and I loved this film. Movie of the year!" - Mike and Jay.
Edit: Now that I've seen the movie... I totally understand.
I saw this on a date without knowing anything about it. I had the same reaction.
@@benb1396 I'm guessing the date was successful if you guys saw this movie lol
@@vivvygipe9605 It was! we had a great time!
Because this movie is so bizzare but also fun to watch.
Loved it.
We need an actual production company called "It sounded good on paper".
Will it eventually go bankrupt as well, leading to the people running it say, "We all knew how this was going to end"?
Change it to “It sounded good on the coffee-stained napkin” to reflect the amount of time they spend on the idea.
@@incognitomcde1360 why all the fawning over this one? Turned it off halfway.

"james wan is back, and so is our lead character"
actually laughed out loud at that one
I feel so dumb, because I can tell there is a joke there, but have no idea what it is, please explain :(
@@rauvagol Spoilers for the movie/ review
The villain of the movie (Gabriel) was a conjoined twin on the main character’s back, but he basically got surgically removed except his head and brain kinda (they share the same brain in a way?) so the main character is *literally* a human back
@@unlimitededge2689 yup, i feel dumb, ty
Tremendous line lol
I love how Bughuul is Mike's go-to word for scary bad guy monster things.
Mr. Boogy will live on forever
It reminds me of when he reviewed Sinister. He made fun of when the demon expert tells ethan hawke what the monster is over skype and mike says "you got a 'bughuul' problem."
The backwards monster in this movie kind of looked like Bughuul.
@@pianoandguitarlover2773 when i first watched sinister i always thought bughuul looked like a slipknot member
@@kevinluna3257 to be fair baghuul is spitting image of mick Thomson
Mike's intro being on paper and Jay's being on his phone made me smile.
I don't think Mike has ever held a piece of not crumpled paper. Ever.
@Area52 written on by a… “Penne”?
Gen-X vs Millenial.
Oh I'm using paper 'cause I'm a boomer
Jay has sucked so much youth from Mike there's a whole generational difference between them now
I love this movie. Everyone walking out of the theater seemed to love it. Fun, camp, and crazy. An absolute blast.
I really enjoyed it and im a film snob. Its crazy this film is getting so much h8 when its really half decent.
As a lover of terrible 90s / naughties horror when the scene was dead, I felt seen. You can never guess intention, but reading the film I think it’s clearly a throwback to the conservative-underbellied, villain-driven, green/gray toned, action / substance heavy, plotless, gory mess that was horror 20 years prior. It’s placed at an interesting time as horror is never been bigger and feels like the genre might be bound for a wave of terrible rehashed schlock. I had fun, and am curious how people will look on this movie a few years out- I don’t think critics are totally clued into how much of the film lives as satire. I think it’s worth seeing if you’re ready for a lot of goofs
One guy in my theater completely lost it when Gabriel yeeted the chair across the room, lmao.
@@siitiatuinei2737 100% agree! I, for one, am looking forward to seeing Gabriel become the next iconic slasher with titles such as “Gabe takes Seattle”. For real tho I love the direction horror is going if this film is any indication 👏👏
This. I think it's 100% intentionally silly and "bad". We can say many things about James Wan, but we must always remember 2 things : 1) the guy knows and loves horror, in every movie he directed there are plenty of homages or easter eggs to other horror movies. 2) the guy isn't stupid. Pretty sure he saw "basket case" and maybe even its sequels. The discrepancies between the exterior and interior of the house, the strangely "fake" sets, the creepy hospital on the edge of a cliff..come on, that's saying " this is a cheesy horror, grab your popcorn and enjoy".
Much of the architecture of the movie looks like the type you would find in the Batman universe. Castle/hospitals on cliffs, big underground tunnels, police stations with massive rooms, etc. Hell even the antagonist is a like a comic villain.
You take a wrong turn and you're just in Yharnam all of a sudden.
Gabriel is a Cthulhu !mythos, or a Batman D-lister??
XD
I felt strong Arkham City vibes throughout
i expected the dueling intros to literally be read over each other
same
or at the very least done *Tenet* style..
It subverts expectations.

"Did you forget we share the same brain?" is one of the most hilarious lines in any movie.
My favourite thing is how the movie acts like bangs are genetic. Madison has bangs? Her mom must ALSO have bangs!
Mike: *Let's call him Gabriel, let's be respectful of the material*
Also Mike: *So, Bagool...*
His devotion to calling spooky ghosties “Bagool” is an A1 bit
I love it so much. I’ve called every spooky movie demon Bagool since Sinister came out, myself.

Mike compliant about room sizes is so middle aged. 100% relatable.

When you start thinking in terms of square footage, yeah, you're in your 40s now.
I couldn't agree more. I work in real estate and I am constantly in all kinds of different houses, and this drove me nuts during the movie. Especially since they showed the front of the house at least 7 times
The shots of the creepy surgery castle look straight out of ATHF.
"Gentlemen, behold! Schlock!"
Geeeeentlemennn! I cracccckeed o o open mmmmy ooown skuuuuullll!
James Wan is tired of making horror movies. The studio told him "we'll pay for whatever movie you make but it has to be a horror movie" so he made Malignant instead
Oh man, when they break the episode into parts you know we're in Advanced HITB.
we got RLM kpop references, but when RLM Babymetal reference
not since The Mummy!
@@kingtastytv classic episode. I still rewatch that one regularly
A world in which we've lost Norm Macdonald makes me realize how tightly we must hold onto and protect Rich Evans
Your comment is how I found out. So sad!
I'll always have a metaphorical scar from his passing.
Damn, can't believe I found this out from a CZcams comment. We lost a real one.
I hate that there's a joke begging to be told with the timing of this video relative to the news, but I just can't bring myself to do it.
I want to laugh in Norm's memory so it stops hurting as much. But we lost someone I thought, easily had another decade in him at least. This pain is surreal.
Norm should've watched Malignant, it could've cured his cancer. Rest easy, you old chunk of coal.
"Tonally it's like Sam Raimi, meets Dario Argento, meets Frank Henenlotter, meets TROMA. With the slickness of a James Wan studio movie."
The fact this sentence was said without experiencing a stroke is a feat to behold. The fact this sentence is also entirely correct: Means the universe will collapse in on itself soon or something holy crap.
K
It’s a very accurate statement that I never thought I’d hear about anything.
@@JekyViews If anything the description he made is overly accurate. We are in the weirdest time-line.
That scene where he throws the chair from the other side of that huge office and knocks two people unconscious at the same time was straightout surreal to see in the theater. I couldn't even react to it.
Could not have said it better.
Its so unconventional.
The fact that cracking her skull frees her head-demon-cancer is phenomenal
It’s the best plot mechanic since Faust’s ‘getting raped so hard her uterus was destroyed’ back story thwarting the devil’s plan to create a spawn baby with the lead actress
The fact that this thing seems to have eyes, a full mouth of teeth, and vocal cords smushed against the back of her brain stem is amazing. She should be a vegetable.
the fact that her over-the-top abusive husband bounced her head off the wall to make it happen is even better
@@owen5640 All I could think about was the infection risk!
@@itsd0nk do you mean the movie the descent?
This is the first time in history where we had the live action adaptation of an anime that doesn't exist.
The only thing I could think of that would be similar would be Parasyte and even that's not close to it at all haha.
@@amped333 I was thinking about Another, the "scary" shots in the anime aren't as ambitious but the vibe is somewhat similar
Oh my god, you're exactly right. Holy shit.
I thought the same thing. It really had that kind of vibe especially the trapping Gabe in a mental jail. That's just straight up Naruto lmao.
Maybe it's part of the ghost stories cinematic universe, anybody see a black rabbit?
That ending gave me a feeling of an intention to create a new slasher killer hero - with distinct image and weapon and stuff - to start a series of dumb sequels for other directors to make.
Can't wait for Malignant 7 in space!
It's a fantastic time for a space slasher with the whole billionaire space race thing going on. So many cool ways to kill a Bezos up there.
Malignant 9: Gabriel Takes Manhattan
Malignant 10: Gabriel goes to Hell.
Gabriel's dead the final Malignant
Malignant 10: Gabriel is fuckin back again uh oh
nobody can convince me that this isnt exactly the kind of movie James wan wanted to make. We need more weird stuff on cinema like this, for the good or for the so bad its good
This was one of those "weird movies" for mainstream audiences who don't typically like weird movies. As someone who genuinely LOVES weird movies, I found it incredibly lame.
Mike’s intro was most creative but Jay really nailed describing this movie. Jay wins the trophy, Mike gets a participation certificate, and they both get beer. But they have to buy it.
"But they have to buy it" got a good chuckle from me.
This is perfect
hooray my parasocial friends are back
came here to say this
But Cybershell you’re MY parasocial friend!
Can't wait for Olivia Munn to marry them both.
So true bestie
Where's the next god damn video
At the end of the movie it seems like the actress is holding back laughter during her "the power was in me the whole time" and "my sister was family all along" lines.
Gabriel needs to be added as a playable character in Dead by Daylight. I want that so bad. lol
That could be fun. He did remind me of The Twins with the deformed conjoined twin but he’s different enough cause it’s Gabriel can’t split from Maddison.
@@LonelyMarshtomp Exactly. The player could transform into Maddison and almost be disguised, and act as another player or something. Would be so awesome

Omg that makes so much sense, she was on AGT as a contortionist. Super good too, I was pissed when she got voted out.
Yeah I watch AGT sometimes don’t judge me.
At the end of filming each day, she probably had a splitting headache.
Jay's intro had better pacing overall, but Mike's had the better punchline.
100% agreement
Still waiting for the Rich Evans' cut. #releasedickthebirthdayboycut
Yes, untill the punchline , Jay was in the lead, but cancer jokes are so fun.
Agreed
I think Jay still pinches it, brevity is the soul of wit 😉
Whenever Mike calls a movie "baffling" it's almost always a must-see. They should put that on the poster.
I loved how at the begening Gabriel runs away from a single wounded cop for about 10 minutes and is unable to kill him, yet he goes against and anhilates the entire armed police force quite easily not long after.
"Wow, Gabriel had a tough time going head to head with just one detective, it's probably going to be really hard for him to face a whole police force on his own."
"Actually it's going to be super easy. Barely an inconvenience."
What the hack frauds missed is that Emily gets kicked in the head in the holding cell and that's what fully releases Gabe.
@@cloud20zero I’m gonna need you to get AAAAAAAAAALL the way off my back
@@tristan8940 "Okay, let me get off that thing"
I think at this point he is still sort of trying to not get caught. Or its bad screen writing.
I loved how in the movie the surgeon has a ‘worlds best brain surgeon’ trophy.
Then when it shows her doing surgery she just shoved a bunch of crap into a little girl’s skull with her hand.
I thought you were going to say that said trophy was use to perform surgery on the brain of said surgeon.
subtext
Dude, not only her patient survived that but also seemingly didn't developed any pathologies and even had a chance to live a sort of normal life. Who knew it was an xman demon or whatever Gabriel was. So credit goes where it is due
I wouldn't be surprised to find out most of a surgeon's job was just shoving stuff back into a body with their hands.
@@peytonmac1131 basically, cutting out stuff that shouldnt be there, putting stuff back where it's supposed to be, and making sure the patient doesn't bleed to death while you're doing it. Not much more to it
Once the jail scene hit every single person in the theater was either clapping, laughing or cheering. Then we get to the fight sequence in the "police station" and everybody lost it. Popcorn flying and shit, I love this movie, seeing this was easily my favorite theater experience.
I feel that right there. Is exactly the feeling the movie wanted to give to people.
Maybe james wan wanted to make some kind of an ultimate crowd-pleasing experiemce
@@atlurk I wouldn’t be surprised if amidst all these really intense times. He just wanted to make a movie that could make people forget about it all.
When I first saw this movie I was super disappointed because I was half expecting The Conjuring, but now I absolutely love it. We know that James Wan obviously knows how to make a good modern movie, you can tell he made this super campy on purpose.
Malignant is the best time I've had at the movies in a loooong time (mostly thanks to covid), but holy shit what a bat-shit crazy movie! Will definitely be buying on blu-ray
"If laughter was a cure for cancer, this film could cure itself." That's really clever.
The man's earned enough horror clout to make more films he wants and should be allowed to make more, I dig the creativity
creativity? uhu yeah sure......
He can make cool concept movies that a fun visually or massive studio garbage piles that please Chinese peasants and American peasants alike, but he can't direct a good performance or make a film about something the least bit meaningful that makes sense.
I love how everything in the movie, despite being set in the present day, has 70's aesthetics, because the set designers know that "old stuff is spooky"
...if your 9 years old.
Well I sure AF am.
This movie is the epitome of "borderline experimental"
Just like Repligator was
i loved this movie so much. regardless of the actual quality or intent i genuinely hope it is remembered for years to come.
I mean, it's either an amazing parody of modern-ish horror movies or it's accidentally an amazing parody of modern-ish horror movies. I get the same enjoyment either way.
Oh, and the cinematography is absolutely cranked up to parody James Wons own movies.
Mike saying "What a pickle, Rick" hurt me physically.
I wonder if it was intentional.
People being bothered by Rick and Morty memes are people who are probably fans of the show, which is really embarrassing
It did 2d6 psychic damage
*unnecessary excessive burps intensify*
I'M PICKLE RIIIIIIICK
The doctor that says "He's broadcasting his thoughts!" says it with the exact same accent and affect as Kevin from The Office.
I swear to God I thought that entire scene was going to be a fake movie like the opening to the Rocketeer.
"Time to... CUT OUT THE CANCER!"
@@charlottecorday8494 at one point I said out loud, “ohh, they’re shooting a movie.”
so glad I’m not the only one that thought this lol, I was laughing so hard at that line
Just watched the film. I loved it.
It's very hard to figure out if it's intentional or not. But it is very cheesy. Absolutely hugely entertaining though, so I love it for that aspect.
Part of me thinks it's played entirely straight and it's just trying to be badass and cool and fails. But another part of me thinks it's in on the joke.
I'm not sure, I don't think anyone is.
Quite certain it’s 1000% intentional. It’s camp!!!
Well, the best comedies are those that are played straight.
My friend spoiled the whole movie for me and it sounded absolutely idiotic, but after seeing some of the fight scenes I'm interested again. I'll probably end up watching and roasting it with some friends and beers.
I couldn't disagree more. I actually think Mike and Jay are being weirdly aloof. It's so obviously intentional. I loved it for that. I can't see where anyone would get the idea that this was somehow done by accident.
I think it’s intentional because the twist is so nuts that the movie being like a Drag Me to Hell type comedy-horror from the start would have made the likelihood of the twist a real possibility, so the movie almost has to play it straight as much as possible until the last half hour. It’s like the movie wants to be campy but can’t go full camp until it reveals all of its secrets. That’s partially why it’s inconsistent with its tone. I feel like the movie being way more of a dark comedy throughout would have made the movie more fun but the twist less impactful…
This movie has MAJOR Italian vibes. Like, the plot, the acting, and the overall theme feels like something that could only come from the mind of either Dario Argento or Lucio Fulci.
It's a Giallo pastiche(-ish?), sort of?
also the fact that Gabriel loves lasagna and HATES mondays
That's a glowing review for a film if I ever saw one.
Definitely has some old school giallo vibes.
This review is the perfect example of what makes Red Letter Media the greatest movie review channel on CZcams. The way they are able to see the film for what it really is, whereas every other reviewer just takes it completely seriously at face value. As hilarious as Mike and Jay are, they are truly brilliant film critics.
If I'm being honest I was surprised they had such difficulty figuring out if the director was in on the joke or not. I don't see how you watch the first 5 minutes of the film and not know it was going to be intentional schlock
@@Sean-yg9dw And that's why I hate that the opening is in the movie at all. Because the first 5 minutes ARE so clearly intentional and shlocky, it let's everyone feel like they have a big brain for noticing that. But it's everything AFTER the opening that is fascinatingly questionable. It's not cut and dry at all
@@Sean-yg9dw have you seen any of wan's other movies? every single one is unintentional shlock.... why would this one be any different?
As someone from Seattle, I can say with a fair bit of certainty that there are no spooky medical castles bordered by dense woodland on one side and a sheer drop into Lake Washington on the other.
Bet then again, I'm not a doctor.
but there is, kind of... no cliff, but wWhats the cool old building on the hill on the south side of the lake overlooking the arboretum? You can seeit from just about anywhere in the city... Sort of up and across the freeway on the horizon? Shits cool looking and spooky. not THIS spooky, but I assume thats where they got the inspo.
@@insome776 It's a non-spooky medical castle. Or hospital, in the parlance of our times.
@@nobel11 I prefer non-spooky medical castle.
I watched this with my sister, and hilarious enough as soon as she saw the "killer" running backwards she said "ah god she is Voldermort" 😂 the movie just became amazingly hilarious for me after
Backwards man from Freddy Got Fingered
I loved the fact that there was a giant extractor fan in the attic that was a) nowhere to be seen from the house exterior and b) you would never actually see on a standard suburban townhouse
"What a pickle, Rick!"
Leave it to Mike to be 4 years late on a terrible meme.
Almost low fruit but it works... 😂
But the out of dateness and uncertainly about lack of authenticity lends credence to the review, no?
funniest shit I've ever seen.
I had no clue that Mike even knew what Rick and Morty was. He seems to have trouble using a keyboard so this is very surprising.
Half in the Bag references Rick and Morty. I feel like I've come to the end of the internet.

My favourite quote from this review
26:10 is proof
XD
"If laughter was the cure to cancer, this movie could cure itself"
Gold
Holy shit. The “backwards man” song playing while showing her being controlled by her evil twin. One of the funniest things I’ve seen in a long time.
This made me laugh. Just hilarious.
I loved that connection they made. I totally forgot about backwards man. Every time I think of that movie I always think about the sausages, but there's a ton of great jokes in that movie. It's the funniest thing Tom Green ever did.
As soon as I saw the Gabriel character walk backwards, I played that song in my head. Lol
What about the Madness song when they show the houses ?
Pure gold.
I love how Half in the Bag has just turned into Mike and Jay brainstorming better written versions of the films that they watch.
🤣🤣🤣 right
I haven’t laughed this hard at a theatre in forever. Malignant is a fucking masterpiece
First 30 minutes: Oh this seems like a spooky story, let's see how this evolves.
Last 30 minutes: I had no thoughts left in my head. There was only laughter and accidental urine.
The delivery of that woman yelling about the creature eating her babies for strength reminded me of Anna Faris in a Scary Movie.
Same energy
Something I never thought I'd hear said in all seriousness, this movie is amazing
I miss Cindy Campbell
Mike writing his intro on paper and Jay on his phone is perfectly in character.
i wish they were characters
I am completely in the "loving homage" camp when it comes to the intent of Malignant. It's a batshit crazy film in the best way because it is self aware and knowingly leans in to the batshit premise. The best thing is that it's different and unexpected and gave the audience a unique, fun experience. And you have to appreciate the backwards action choreography (or the choreography to make it appear like she's moving backwards). Malignant is awesome and I'll die on that hill.
It was pure joy not being spoiled on this film, not even the poster let on ANYTHING.
I hate myself for reading the wikipedia entry before seeing it.
I wonder how many times I said "holy crap" during that movie. I just loved the absolute train wreck it was, with all that pace. It reminds me of X-Files, in that like that show, I had no idea what was going to happen next. I didn't even see the thing on the back of the head coming. I have to agree with Jay though, as you're watching it, you can't believe it was something they would release, other than it being quite cinematic. I'm not saying it being atypical for Hollywood is bad, and it got me to thinking about new horror movies much more seriously. I noticed since covid, horrors are actually better movies than they used to be, however, recently they seem to be more cookie cutter.
As a person that has fallen through an attic onto the floor below, and only missed it being a multi story fall by like 5-10 feet, I just want to attest to the fact that a person can easily fit between the beams.

That reminds me of the Erfurt Latrine Disaster where in medieval times a whole Hoftag fell from the second floor through the ground floor into the cesspit and around 60 people drowned in feces.
@@CraigTalbert if you're asking me, I was fine. I was in the attic one moment, then suddenly on the floor in a pile of debris below. I was more shocked than hurt.
"why are you pregnant stupid" is hilarious
“I understand square footage on homes and my eyes can see and I think about stuff” - Mike
Malignant in three acts:
1) Haunted house trope
2) Contrived supernatural mystery
3) Action-comedy-crack binge
This was honestly the happiest I've seen Mike and Jay in at least a year. And very glad to see it.
Who knew they only needed a prequel in Total Recall Cinematic Universe
Couldn't help noticing jack-o-lantern cups and about a gallon of vodka behind Jay, there, so I guess can expect the standard Halloween episode this year.
I'm gonna predict. 1 evil rock and roll movie and 1 Donald Farmer(Shark Exorcist) movie and 1 other movie I don't know.
One can only hope!
Can't wait! 🤗🤗
My biggest quarrel with this movie is: her sister is driving to this hospital during the day. Its sunny with at least 4 hours of good daylight left. She gets there and it's 1030pm. She goes through the records, finds what she's looking for. SNAP* she's back home.
That's the joke...I think...
The time loss is setting up some sort of loss-of-self situation for her in the sequel either by Gabriel or something else. That's why they needed to establish she was an actress too.
Yeah, this was the moment I realised the movie was in on the joke I think. There's not even a scene between her seeing the hospital in broad daylight and arriving there in the middle of the night, it's just so stupid it HAD to be on purpose... right?
I think its a parody of Halloween where Laurie and Linda are driving to the babysitters and yes its late evening but the sun is still setting. By the time they get there, its pitch dark. Then it turns out the babysitting houses are on the same block or whatever as the Myers house that Loomis was watching all night, which is only down the street from Lauries house, and Lindas house is also on the same street. That didn't make much sense either, but Halloween is so effective as a scary film that its easy to overlook all that.
Omg. This film was made for a sequel tagline: Gabriel's Back.
Rich Evans is just a very well developed terratoma.
LMFAO!!!
Lmfaooo
Rich Evans is a God among men, sir.
Someone write a horror script called Terrortoma. I want to but I never will.
A sexy terratoma
“If laughter were a cure for cancer, this movie could cure itself” is an amazing insult holy shit
I'm definitely quoting him on that whenever I see something beyond awful
Or compliment?
I thought this movie was great. It was like being able to watch an 80s cheesy body horror movie where I knew nothing about the plot and no one had spoiled anything in the 40 years since it had come out. Super enjoyable 5/7.
A perfect score?!
"What a pickle, Rick." Made me laugh so much more than I wish it had.
"We cut out the cancer"
"DING DONG"
I fucking lost it.
That’s my favorite part of the film for sure
Seattleite here, we actually do have a creepy hospital that sits on top of a hill. It’s called Beacon Hill Pacific Medical Center and it does kinda look like that. My friends and I call it Arkham Asylum.
Sure... but Beacon Hill isn't situated on the edge of a freaking cliff LOL
Makes for a tactically efficient Morgue
Wait, Beacon? The Evil Within?
@@badjujubes And it's more art deco than spooky gothic dracula castle.
Is it next to Emperor Palpatine surgical reconstruction center?
I’ll just say this was the most fun I’ve had watching a horror movie in the past several years. It’s the most batshit insane thing I’ve seen with a budget this big. I saw this with my best friend and my family, and laughed even harder the second time. Thank you James Wan, you goddamn legend
"It's been on for like a decade. I've been recording everything you said."
"What!?"
Perfect ending.
I love that Bagoul is the shorthand for a Spoopy now
@@skaetur1we just need Vincent D'Onofrio (or James Earl Jones) on a Zoom call saying Pazuzu and then it will become the lexicon
"Don't hurt that spoopy!"
I had no idea what this movie was, watched it with friends, and we were losing our shit laughing. I love it for that.
Same here! And I was also texting friends right after it saying, "Just watched Malignant... movie is hardcore batshit!" lol
Malignant started as a horror movie and ended as an action movie. What a wild ride!
I like to think James Wan is in the theater laughing cape fear style
I also like that the Demon doesn't possess or outwit people, he just stabs them
I loved how effortlessly he stabbed the old doctor in the apartment
outwit
@@RobertAnhalt you are my favorite character in this comment section man. I see you correcting all these people on their shitty spellings and I’m like “thank God someone is telling them.” You’re hilarious, genuinely keep it up
It's the only way they'll learn.
That was my biggest complaint lmao. Why can it even do magic electricity stuff if it just uses a knife??
This movie is another entry in the genre of films paying tribute to schlock, which I would like to call:
Homage du fromage
Omelette de homage
LOL Good one!
Pure class
"If laughter were a cure for cancer, this film could cure itself" is an amazing line
I watched malignant with a couple of friends of mine at home. To us, the best movies are thouse that you need to pause multiple times because we are laughing out loudly. this was one of those movies. we all had a blast. but don´t get me wrong, this is not some kind of trash movie. I really appreciated the whackiness and it was so refreshing to see a horror movie go into a different direction than all the other god aweful horror movies you see these days.
