The first original production from new genre studio Welcome Villain Films, Malum (read our review) is an expanded reimagining of the 2014 horror movie Last Shift, and the film is now available to watch at home. With Malum streaming on Digital outlets beginning today, Bloody Disgusting has been provided with an exclusive featurette video.
The cast and crew, including director Anthony DiBlasi (Last Shift, Dread, Extremity), preview Malum in the video you’ll find below, looking at the film’s practical effects while also discussing what makes Malum different from Last Shift. DiBlasi notes, “I think it’s a crowd-pleaser.”
Directed by Anthony DiBlasi (Last Shift, Dread, Extremity) and co-written by DiBlasi and Scott Poiley (Last Shift, Missionary, Exhume), the same creative team behind 2014’s Last Shift, Malum reimagines the original critically-acclaimed horror hit.
“On a search to uncover the mysterious circumstances surrounding her father’s death, a newly appointed police officer, Jessica Loren, is assigned to the last shift in a decommissioned police station where a notoriously vicious cult saw their demise years prior. The lone officer at the station, she soon finds herself barraged by terrifying paranormal events and, in the process, is taken on a journey during which she learns the shocking truth behind her family’s entanglement with a demented cult leader. Malum takes the premise of the 2014 festival hit and flips it on its head, thrusting viewers into an unrelenting, adrenaline-fueled, bloody cult nightmare.”
Malum stars Jessica Sula (Skins, Split, Godless, Panic) and was shot on location in a recently abandoned prison in downtown Louisville, Kentucky.
The cast also includes Candice Coke (Kevin Can F**K Himself), Chaney Morrow (Haunt), Clarke Wolfe (Satanic Panic, Torn Hearts), Morgan Lennon (Something From Tiffany’s), Valerie Loo (American Horror Stories), Monroe Cline (Don’t Worry Darling), Eric Olson (Raising Helen), Sam Brooks (Fear Street: Part Two – 1978), Kevin Wayne (The Outsider), Danielle Coyne (Bad Apples), Natalie Victoria (Dead Heads), Christopher Matthew Spencer (Snowfall, Winning Time) and Britt George (True Blood).
The film features special effects make-up from the team at RussellFX (Hellraiser, The Ritual, The Night House).
