Malice: A Supernatural Thriller
Dread Central on Malice’s director, Phillip Cook:
Philip Cook’s 1992 Invader is a witty pre-“X-Files”-ish science fiction flick about a reporting investigating UFO sightings that turn out to be the work of an ultra-nationalistic, megalomaniacal, giant robot built in part from reverse engineered UFO parts that decides to nuke the rest of the world for the greater glory of the United States of America.
Cook’s entertaining 2003 supernatural “Mad Max”-ish Despiser revolves around a small band of characters trying to find their way out of Purgatory while having to deal with the monstrous occupant of a crashed UFO that doesn’t realize it’s dead and has made itself overlord of the afterlife.
With Malice it seems Mr. Cook is keeping with what seems to be his modus operandi of taking about a decade between projects. He may truly be the Terrence Malick of micro-budget genre filmmakers.
