Garbagehands shared a tip "Oh my god I’m not sure why people didn’t like this movie because I’m in love with it! It reminds me of those stupid crazy 2000s horror movies it’s so close to them if you told me it was made then I wouldn’t be surprised. It had that foggy blue emptiness that they have that I love. If you get it you get it if you don’t then I’m not sure what to tell you…I guess you don’t like fun. Hahahaha I jest! But please give this movie more love."

RicoLoveDinero shared a tip "Like I really was watching this movie think wtf am I watching? Didn’t know whether to be scared or laugh. Definitely not what I was expecting"

heartsfromshayla shared a tip "I liked this. it had kind of a late 80's early 90's film vibe to it and I thought it made the movie all the better. the plot is so incredibly crazy and this movie owns it, the outrageous concept makes this movie fun. most of the twists were very predictable for me but it was fun to watch them play out."

theefinalboy shared a tip "This movie starts off okay, but when it gets to the third act 
IT IS TRULY ******* BONKERS
I had a feeling to what the reveal would be, but I didn't predict it to end up in THAT way! Absolutely crazy. Loved every second of it.
I BELIEVE IN JAMES WAN SUPREMACY"

VixLe shared a tip "I did not like this movie. I loved James Wan’s first two insidious films, the first two conjurings, and some of the Annabelle films however this one had some problems. First the idea and the premise of the movie were interesting, however, bringing the ideas to fruition in the film did not go well. Even though many individuals discussed the theme of “retro style” horror, I felt that it crossed the line into some racist problematic caricatures especially in the jail scene."

abs shared a tip "So I wanna say I actually liked this because it has a lot of twists and mystery into . But it also has a lot of horror filled scenes as well I liked it ."

samantha_blizzard shared a tip "I had fun watching this. It didn’t take long to figure out the twist but was still enjoyable to watch it play out. You can see there was inspiration from many cult horror movies brought into this one. Was it bone chilling horror? No but it was a great time to watch, a bit of gore, a bit of cheesyness, a lot of jump scares, mixed together with psychological horror. Definitely recommend checking this out. Great movie for the fall season."

libertyB- shared a tip "I thought this would be like Last Night in Soho but it was actually much different. There were a lot of hints to the ending that I didn’t quite catch the first time but definitely an interesting watch."

Lamphead shared a tip "Surprised it took me this long to watch it, because what James Wan did with this film is just completely insane that is a self-parody of his own work that still remains to have the same fun energy that he did with Aquaman, while having one of the most insane twists I’ve seen in years."

jasonwright shared a tip "Not what I expected, as I was given the impression that the film was more cerebral. Once I became engaged, however, it's a serviceable horror concept. It was fairly easy to figure out the direction the film was going. The ending is fitting should the creators decide on a sequel."

khari_ty_hardin shared a tip "Definitely a different type of horror movie. Also, very gory. If serial killer movies don’t scare you, but demonic movies do, than this is something you should watch. I didn’t find it scary, just bizarre. It all comes together at the end."

dolvin shared a tip "Brutal, relentless and very funny. James Wan is churning out quite a legacy of genre gems and I'm happy to see him return to his R-rated roots. Visual and narrative homages to DePalma and Raimi respectively. It's also a striking tribute to the wildest gialli mindfucks from the bygone days of bootleg VHS. Adjust your tracking and prepare to have your heads cleaned, bashed, and spun."

nikki_johnson_6819 shared a tip "I have heard so many not-so-good reviews from a lot of people. So, I decided to check it out myself. I like the concept and the twist. The ending could've had more substance, but I got a "Twilight Zone" and "Creepshow" feel from it. It's not horrible, but it is some things that could've been better. 🤔 *shrugs*"

summer_langell shared a tip "It was a fantastic movie, like 10/10, until the last 10-15 minutes! *face palm* The dialogue is so cheesy during those last few minutes, and I personally think an alternative ending might have been better. The movie was great… until the end."

zaira_acosta shared a tip "Wowwww this movie was a complete mind bender. Most scary movies are very similar to each other, but this plot was so different and unique. Super creepy and gory, i loved it!!!"

john_tobar shared a tip "I Love this wild and crazy movie! It’s unique and fast paced with an end sequence that is sure to amaze! I give it ♊️♊️♊️♊️ Four Gemini symbols."

melanies_muses shared a tip "This was interesting. Dark and twisty - Watched with Greg and @dave_christy - and between the 3 of us we ALMOST solved it all but not quite. Unique perspective - one of the better ones I’ve seen recently. A little slow to start but once it gets going it’s worth it!"

cassandra_sacratini shared a tip "Such a fun departure for James Wan. A beautiful homage to 80s horror. A bit predictable, but yet, still an exciting film. Wonderful practical effects blended with outstanding CGI. Can’t wait for James Wan’s next project."

madelynboyd shared a tip "This movie is so terrible, but if you go into it with that mindset, it's hilariously enjoyable. Definitely recommend watching Red Letter Media's commentary (includes spoilers) before watching. https://youtu.be/x-JPhAM5ugE"

officiallydivinity shared a tip "5.5/10 for me. It was beautifully shot and the storyline was intriguing but some of the acting fell a little short. 💥spoiler💥But it was a great story abt what could happen when we dont deal with our childhood truama esp if we remain in abusive cycles throughout our adult life."

puna_earl shared a tip "Definitely an interesting take for the genre. I had guessed the twist fairly early on but there were still some nice surprises later in the movie. Action sequences and fights were very well done. Not my favorite James Wan but still a good one."

woeb0t shared a tip "It’s goofy at times and there is way too much CGI. But the concept is pretty interesting and it kept me entertained the whole time. The beginning was sort of Conjuring-like and actually spooky. But It gave me Jeepers Creepers vibes towards the end (kinda over-the-top). 3/5 stars"

apricotti shared a tip "The shots in this movie are so weird?? It's set up so weird? That i laughed in the theater a lot and my friend and I couldn't stop the whole time I'm so sorry none if it made sense it was funny though"

ibetheshooter shared a tip "Maaaaaaaaan listen, I don't watch the trailer & trust me I'm glad I didn't. I enjoyed it, it was ****** weird and different. #GoodTimes"

SupremeAnu shared a tip "I really wanted to like this, but I just couldn't. I could tell Wan put a lot of thought into this movie trying to make it different and it is, in a bad way. There's elements from all his movies in here, but it doesn't hit the same. The premise is interesting and keeps you engaged, but the movie wasn't scary to me. Usually horror draws a parallel between the fear present in the movie and our innerselves and I don't see that here. Watch Halloween (1978) for reference."

johnny_walker shared a tip "James Wan brought horror back to the forefront with this movie, only seen part of a "cam" version but that was meaty enough to get some early props. 😏"

jahzmen_oliver shared a tip "This was so good. Interesting, unique, thrilling, with lots of twists. The acting was pretty good and I would rate the movie 8.5/10"

haylie_miller_6883 shared a tip "This was a terrible movie. Really made me sit down and watch the whole thing. Just to be hella disappointed in the end. Nothing about this movie made any sense either. Like its never gonna be over. Plus someone needs to put her in jail because it gonna keep coming back. Not worth your time. Just all around bad."

naomi_velez shared a tip "Im a huge horror movie fan. I like all kinds. And I’m always decisive about who I felt about the movie. There are only a few movies that I walk away not knowing how I feel. This was one of those. I honestly couldn’t tell you if I liked it or hated it. It didn’t feel like any James Wan movies I’ve ever seen. And I’m a huge fan of his movies. I think I have to sit with this for a while"

taylor_malone_8718 shared a tip "Honestly the twist ending I saw coming within the first twenty minutes, but the portrayal and themes were amazing. Knowing the ending, the journey was so unlikely anything I could of seen coming. Really makes you think about things we see as ‘ malignant’- perfect name for the movie."

cindy_forsberg shared a tip "Maybe I didn't get it but I kept thinking it was a joke/satire because it was filled with clichés. If there was a wink, I missed it."

bored_xiii shared a tip "This movie was absolutely wild in the best way possible and had me rolling laughing at times. It is absolutely worth checking out if you can stomach gore and suspend your disbelief. the fact that is was spooky and ridiculous made the movie wonderfully campy. Just so you don't lose your mind like I did, the theme of the movie (more or less) is a remix of where is my mind by the pixies. it drove me up a wall to not know where the guitar line in the movie was from."

ourladyofsorrows shared a tip "The twist was interesting but I saw it coming miles away and the acting/story , especially near the end, felt a bit too cheesy for my taste"

alex_nav shared a tip "This movie was funny it was not scary at all. It had me laughing unintentionally. I like the movie cover it looks sick and some scene were everything was red. It was not bad compared to other movies it was entertaining after all. If your intention was to come watch a horror movie do not watch this movie you will be disappointed."

daniel_mayo shared a tip "So I gave this movie a thumbs up because I didn't hate it but it's not something I can recommend though as well. Some of the acting is pretty bad in this movie and the story just felt rushed and the twist is kind of dumb."

jxda shared a tip "It was interesting, to say the least? It was ominous at times but extremely cheesy too. There wasn't a lot of horror either. The score/soundtrack was really good though, so was the cinematography. There was a lot of bad acting so if you don't like that this might not be for you. 4/5 stars."

taylor_forns shared a tip "I love James Wan’s horror movies, but this one missed the mark. There was a lot going on. At times it felt like a horror movie, other times it felt like I was watching NCIS. It made the movie feel very choppy. Plus the overall plot was not interesting or scary. Two thumbs down; not worth it."

an_lenore shared a tip "I really liked it. Everything it sets up has pay off, the horror is there and it has quite a few jump scares, plus this one starts fast and really picks up speed. If I had to compare it to another film would definitely be Drag Me To Hell."

cherry_fox shared a tip "I feel like labeling this as a horror movie doesn’t really tell what it actually is. It’s a good movie, but it’s not a horror movie. It’s more like a psychological thriller and if you look at it from that standpoint, it would be considered a really good movie. I highly recommend it if you like movies like that. #psychologicalthriller #psychological_thriller"

therealcoronaextra shared a tip "This was not at all what I was expecting. I actually don’t know what I was expecting. This isn’t like a huge jump scare movie. It has a lot of plot twist and definitely keeps you engaged. It had some funny moments as like a “comic-relief” but overall the movie was interesting. I recommend 100%."

joey_jones_9956 shared a tip "It's a fun movie with a really dumb plot and some questionable acting. Just go in expecting a high budget B-Movie and you'll likely have a good time."

lavish_light_skin shared a tip "Has a very campy 1980’s slasher feel to it, and I mean that in a good way. Some of the acting also harkens back to that era however I think all this was intentionally done. The movie is rather predictable, but I found it a really enjoyable watch regardless and would recommend it."

matthew_stephens_3418 shared a tip "A campy horror film is quite the change I needed, it was genuinely scary, the shots are really cool. The film is most definitely corny and the acting is off but I fell that is most definitely the point of this movie. It’s quite a blast and I think it should be watched."

amanda_lester_5687 shared a tip "Not the movie I was expecting, but that turned into a great thing. Certainly not everyone's cup of tea, but those who do appreciate it really will."

purp_barrow shared a tip "Something different, I enjoyed it.. the twist kinda threw me off but after a 2nd watch I really like this movie, I'd give it a 7 outta 10... I wonder what would a part 2 be about 🤔"

brittany_warren_9254 shared a tip "It started off great! The characters were realistic, spooks started right away, and had a wonderfully creepy atmosphere. Towards the end though, it got a little... ridiculous honestly. It had good potential for the story line but the ending was terrible and completely made me lose all interest. It's hard to say without spoiling anything but the last few scenes were a little too unrealistic and action movie-like."

karli_r shared a tip "It was slow moving for me at first but then spun my head exorcist style with a plot twist. I do indeed recommend. #horrormovies #horror #thriller #hbomax"

daniela_velez shared a tip "ABSOLUTELY WOULD RECOMMEND IF YOU LIVE PSYCHOLOGICAL HORROR FILMS!! God, the genius of the camera angles and the plot twists are great and they picked a great cast for this movie!!"

sjartist_0314 shared a tip "Wow, I got to say the twists in this movie and the reveal of Gabriel was astounding. To be honest, at first the movie felt boring and almost impossible to understand but as I watched , the flashbacks of Maddison’s childhood and her connection to Gabriel made me love this movie."
