Review of Maléfique (2003) by Devon W — 15 Sep 2008
Four prisoners discover a diary in their cell with black magic rituals that they attempt to use to escape. Bad stuff happens.
Weird, weird little french flick. For taking place almost the entire run-time in a prison cell, it does an amazing job keeping you from realizing it. The characters are quirky and unique, and the very fast progression of character development is practically unnoticable due to the fine acting.
The ending's a little silly, but I thought it was something new and loved it. Worth a watch if you like the odd lovecraftian horrors.
