12 Hour Shift

Damn this was funny, and dark, and bloody... but I'm not sure it's horror. More like horror adjacent. Sure, it contains horror elements, and the gore and practical effects are good fun, but its definitely a comedy. A hospital full of crazy characters, a junkie nurse involved in a little organ harvesting and a crazy cousin with the IQ of a chihuahua. A fun movie where everything that can go wrong, does go wrong, and every attempt to fix things just makes it so much worse. David Arquette has a small role but he's looking fit. The cast are hit and miss but the dark comedy is consistent, and you'll definitely cringe a few times and laugh out loud a few times too.

An interesting movie with an original style and good script... and the artists are very good specially the character by chloe

Actress Brea Grant doesn't have many notches on her belt for writing and directing, but wow did she make this dark horror comedy awesome!

The 86 min runtime was just right with the great pacing. The cinematography and score were excellent. The casting was perfect, especially with Angela Bettis' straight-faced character contrasted next to Chloe Farnworth's "dumb blonde" persona.

Her screenplay was solid - better than some films I've recently seen from seasoned filmmakers. The comedy was on point with many wtf and lol moments. The 80's style horror scenes were just right with great gore, and there were many thrills in the various multiple storylines intertwined perfectly.

Mad respect and props to Grant for pulling off this little gem. I'll be watching this one again with friends who haven't seen it. A well deserved 8/10 from me.

A dark solid wicked black comedy has been born, with inquests of deep desperation and twist to stay boyant in the water. that combined with a very unusual choice of score, rythmic opera made the madness even deeper like a turmoil of hell.

its about organ trafficking at a hospital in usa, the nurse and her in law cousin with connections to the mob , supply them with fresh kidney for a hand of doe. one night suddenly a kidneys goes missing when delivery is done, and the saga tell you the chaotic brawl to get a new one within 2 hours.

its a lowbudget film, but extremely well made. just some technical glitches here and there, with the darn daylight. its blood and gore, its witty caracters are so well acted by the small cast, and the production design along with good direction, makes this a charade at level of the british ''faulty towers'' but far more bloody and messy.

it aint a horror movie, ita a bloody comedy, and if you like one brain and a lot of brainless caracter in one go, then its a recommend from the grumpy old man

Ever since I saw her in May I have become a big fan of her and started following her work. I noticed she isn't quite down with blockbusters and always picks smaller projects, and to be honest those are perfect for her, as she manages to bring some soul into the movie and usually steals every scene.

The exact same thing happens in 12 Hour Shift, where her face is everywhere, setting the tone of the movie perfectly and genuinely gets you to enjoy your view. As for the movie per se, it is a great experience, very well build together, a lot of treads that get tied together in a very humorous way, and some unexpected turns every here and there. I am surprised that this one is not more popular, people surely have heard of it by now, so to them I say, go and check it out. You will have a good time watching a different kind of horror comedy - one without gore but with brains.

12 Hour Shift is a great example of little cinema, of fresh horror and a good direction.

Cheers!
