With a screenplay written by Akela Cooper (Wan and his wife, Ingrid Bisu, receive co-story credit), Malignant opens with a self-aware, nodding-at-the-audience prologue set inside the confines of a so-called research hospital straight out of a 19th-century gothic horror story or the underappreciated House on Haunted Hill remake directed by William Malone.
The movie's last act that's the 10 percent that is bad enough to be funny looks and plays more like a bad copy of William Malone's style-over-substance Ring rip-off, FearDotCom.
At least these brief scenes are over quickly, paving the way for the immediate dastardly quandary at hand, a committed, emotionally available Brittany Snow (2012's " Pitch Perfect "), as Iris, and an unforgettably calm, disquieting Jeffrey Combs (2002's " FearDotCom "), as Lambrick, leading an exceptional ensemble cast who linger like spirits in one's memory even after their lifeless bodies are dragged from the room.
