On the 203rd episode of Piecing It Together, filmmaker Josh Stifter joins me to talk about James Wan's glorious return to horror, Malignant. It's almost the textbook definition of the "blank check" movie as Warner Bros clearly gave him free reign to do anything his crazy heart desires, and man did he do something different. Puzzle pieces include A Nightmare on Elm Street, Evil Dead 2, Demons and Suspiria.

As always, SPOILER ALERT for Malignant and the movies we discuss!
