Midnighters

I'm a big fan of alex essoe (starry eyes) and she shines once again. i didn't like her husband or the sisters acting. the antagonist was ok.

good direction, script, and plot twists left me interested. however, the plot thins out towards the latter half of the movie and i had some definite eye-rolling moments.

this movie was a good, slightly higher than average movie

Known for as a film editor, Julius Ramsay makes his directorial debut in this, his first full length film, following his only four TV series - two of which were Walking Dead episodes. And what an outstanding job he did in directing his cameras, and his cast.

He teams up with (his brother) Alston Ramsay's first ever role as writer, and together they create a wonderfully tense, low-budget film noir that benefits greatly from its perfect length, pace, tautness and lack of pretension.

By focusing more on suspense and tension with a perfect touch of gore, the Ramsay brothers have crafted an economical and effective alternative to the many disappointing big-budget entries into this genre.

The primarily novice C-list, and a few B-list actors were surprisingly impressive. The score was perfect. The cinematography on point.

Yes there were a few light plot issues, but still much better writing than some seasoned professional high-paid Hollywood writers.

Aside from that, this film was pretty much flawless - considering its a low budget and B-grade entry level film. Would I see it again and recommend it? Absolutely! A well deserved 8.5 rounded up up a 9/10

I watched this movie without knowing anything about it. I wasn't expecting much as it is a free movie on Youtube. However, when it finished I realised how engrossed I was in it. In fact, I would go as far as to say this is a damned good movie.

The plot is pretty good, too. It begins as a few other other horror movies do - driving home at night and then...BANG...they hit something with their car. This is where it takes an exciting turn away from other films. I really loved the story and the various turns and twists. And they are really well done. In some films, the story seems to be written to accommodate the twists, but in this movie you don't see the twists coming and they blend in so well with the story that they are entirely believable.

I highly recommend this movie to those who want something a little different from their horror / thriller movies.

This movie was impressively made and had an unnerving sense of reality to it. Also had a Hitchcock-esque feel to it. Which in my book is a positive note. The actors well and truly outdid themselves and portrayed their characters to a magnificent degree. And being a screenwriting debut from Ramsay this was a solid head note in their careers. All in all it was enjoyable and had me leaving my claw marks of suspense in the leather couch arms. 7/10

Saw the movie on Hulu and thought I'd give it a shot. And I must say, the movie is pretty good for the directors first feature. But it's not perfect. The acting can get a bit iffy at times but overall it's decent. All the characters are pretty much unlikable, I don't know if this was on purpose but it was impossible for me to root for a single one of them. Overall, it's a decent thriller.
