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.

    • Trivia
      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.

      Grandpa: I'm coming over. You can't be alone now, Angela.

      Angela: I'm not alone.

    Good start, bad ending
    Starts out good enough. Your average horror film. Decent actors, Ok plot. a little bit of Occulus mixed with Grave encounters and other films.

    And then, the ending. Wtf. I can't find any words for it. It is truly horrible. How did they not come up with anything better?

    Minor spoilers ahead:

    1. They show way (waay) to much. Not a scary ending. 2. Elliot can apparently survive anything.

    FAQ2

    • 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.
