This movie gotta be one of the worst movies I've seen this year, and I watch Lifetime movies for fun. I don't know who thought this movie was a good idea. Did the people filming this movie think it was a good idea too? There's no way people weren't actually on drugs during production. ($20 million budget) There's Skai Jackson with an RPG, the creepy girl from Orphan doing a lap dance, Batwoman with a Streetfighter reference, and COD-style montage footage. None of it was good and it is as fever dreamish as it sounds. The acting felt like everyone knew it was bs and a cash grab except for one individual. She wasn't good, in fact, her acting was atrocious, it was like watching a skinwalker learn to be human and talk in English with Jim Carrey's mask on. 2/10.
I heard this was gonna be scary- actually the scariest film this year. A reimagining of the "Last Shift" (which is the original movie), what the director envisioned it to be. No. That was all lies. What I got were cheap jumpscares that didn't work and a dumb protagonist.
The special effects and prosthetics in this film were cool but way too overdone. Those always came along with the jumpscares, so see it too much, all the fear factor is gone.
The original had better camera work, it didn't need to rely on jumpscares because of the camerawork (a little shaky, mostly handheld but the CHAIR SCENE *chefs kiss*) but it had a decent amount of them.
I was hoping for some eerieness the original had in this reboot but all I got was bad acting and too much unecessary dialogue. "Malum" also felt cheaper because of the color grading. Too much red and blue in this one which make it seem too clean. "Last Shift" had much more green which amplified the creepiness of the dirty old, abandoned police station setting.
The plot was way easier to follow in the OG too. I knew what "Malum" was trying to do but it was so incoherent at the same time. It honestly felt like a chore to watch. Sorry, but "Malum" deciding to focus on all the extra plot/lore stuff that was in "Last Shift" was a bad idea. It wasn't the same stuff that made the film memorable or scary. The ambiguity of the film and the true motive of protag made it scary. I can't believe this was a "reboot", hopefully there isn't more of them coming out cause I don't care about the cultists tbh.
