Mr. Malevolent

I think it was okay for an unrated horror anthology.

There were several former well known actors I wanted to see. Unfortunately their talents were wasted on this poorly made fiasco. Direction is non existent and the script is high school level.

Guess everyone needs a paycheck

Worth watching, Fun with decent writing. An average but solid horror anthology. Big on creativity. I can see how a humorless MAGA might not find this movie to be a "Safe Space" but for the rest of us it's all in good ironic horror fun.

I made myself watch this. I wanted to see what the reviewers were talking about. It was absolutely terrible. Trust me, it's not worth price of the electricity it takes to use your television :) Truly bad!

Yes, this film may not be an instant horror classic... some reviewers have criticize the gender, political and racial themes in 7 "American" nightmare vignettes directed/written by Rusty Cundieff/Darin Scott, but what's the big deal? Someone who takes this film "seriously" forget that's it just a "movie", you know entertainment for some viewers.

This "criticism" is what makes this film which is obviously rooted in 50s EC comic material. It would influence notable anthologies such as 70s Amicus film productions preceding 80s George A. Romero's "Creepshow" then up to the 90s "Tales from the Hood" (was first criticized and now celebrated as a cult film). The people who put out the latter and a recent sequel are involved with this film (which has the usual tropes of exploitation cinema).

This anthology forwards the evolution in form of an internet hacking by Danny Trejo playing the online storyteller, "Mister Malevolent". It's good to see Trejo expanding his acting roles and comedic actor, Chris Kattan is in one vignette. Viveca A. Fox and Nichelle Nichols also join in on the fun summing up a responsive anthology to the present-day politics.
