About This Movie

Malamander takes you to Eerie-on-Sea, where the atmosphere is thick with mystery and a touch of whimsy. The film features Herbert Lemon, a quirky boy with a keen sense for lost things, which adds this charming layer to the narrative. He's joined by Violet Parma, a girl in search of her past, and their dynamic feels genuine and engaging. The pacing meanders like the foggy streets of the town, allowing the viewer to soak in the peculiarities of its inhabitants. Practical effects give a tactile sense to the fantastical elements, and the characters are all so distinct, almost like a collection of curiosities themselves. Definitely has a unique vibe that sticks with you.

Malamander has had limited releases, making it a bit of a gem in collector circles. Various formats exist, but the scarcity of physical media adds to its allure. The film’s blend of fantasy and whimsy attracts a niche audience that appreciates its distinct aesthetic and storytelling style. Its offbeat charm and character-driven plot make it a curious piece worth hunting down.
