I just saw it and it was excellent. Really haunting and powerful film.
The review embargo (combined with it being a horror reboot) made me suspect a stinker. So yeah I'm very surprised.

Anyone else excited to check out Wan's Malignant? It looks like it's confirmed to have some giallo DNA...and I am HERE for it.
Very excited to watch tonight and very happy about the news of Halloween Kills getting released on Peacock!
Ooof. I'm so torn on that one. We feel safe enough to check that out at our local theater, and I would love to see it on the big screen. On the other hand...I could watch it in my house for free (we have yet to sign-up for Peacock, so we could do the "free trial).
I prefer watching at home, so, I’m planning on stocking up on all the pumpkin treats, Halloween candy, putting all the Halloween lights on and cozying up to watch from the couch. Definitely not the same as an in theater experience, but, that’s just a personal preference!
Is the fact that you needed a break good or bad?
We all have different viewing habits. Taking a break is usually for not good movies for me.
If anyone's interested in seeing what 1980s Disney's attempts at horror look like, I definitely recommend THE WATCHER IN THE WOODS and SOMETHING WICKED THIS WAY COMES.
SOMETHING WICKED, in particular, has some especially wonderful moments (being based on a great book certainly helps). Ideal Halloween-time viewing.
Watcher in the Woods is my kinder-trauma.
Our grade school teachers forced us to watch that at way too young of an age, and now I’m scared of anyone named Karen
MY AC IS THE SAME and it pisses me off to no end. Even with my nice ass sound bar and surround sound. I have no clue how to fix it, but it is frustrating.I’m not sure if this was to me or not, but, I have a 747 sounding AC system that goes off very often and when it does it makes it pretty impossible to hear any dialogue in whatever I’m watching at the time, which is the reason for the constant pauses. I started the movie around 7:00 and didn’t finish until 10:30-ish.
Long story short, the breaks in viewing for me have nothing to do with the quality of the film!

Not sure if you have a bluetooth-enabled TV or if you're watching with other folks, but a pair of wireless headphones would help with this.Currently taking my time watching Midnight Mass (only up to episode 4 but so far I’m obsessed) and it makes getting through even a single episode so difficult.
