I had to watch this movie on opening night because I'm a diehard Last Podcast/Henry Zebrowski AND horror movie fan. Now I'm a diehard Jeremy Gardner fan! After Midnight is a genre-bending movie - the evolution of horror. I kept thinking I knew what was going to happen, and I was proven wrong again and again. The horror genre needed a facelift, and Jeremy Gardner gave it a face transplant 😈 Great acting, fabulous script, beautiful cinematography, killer soundtrack, and of course Henry was hilarious. I can't wait to see more movies like this. Tegustagalations! (Congratulations I like you)

Not sure why all the bad reviews, but it's definitely better than all the 1 out of 10s it's getting. Just the crazy ending that wasn't expected at all should get it more stars for being unique. It kept my attention and curiosity throughout, wondering what was going to happen. I would recommend giving it a shot.

Save yourself the time watch the last 10 minutes hilarious! The rest of the movie absolutely horrible hard to follow plot, horrible character development, and nothing scary about it at all. Makes my best taste bad

I dont know what this is; is it horror? A love story? Sci-fi!? Comedy!? Probably all of the above. I watched this because my wife was watching Love Island and I had nothing else to do, but I ended up jumping at the scares, laughing at the jokes and even kind of "aww"ing at the romance. It's weird AF but in a unique, borderline beautiful way. Honestly, dont take it too serious, dont expect it to be an outright horror, or anything else for that matter. Watch it for what it is and enjoy the performances. Especially that of Henry Zebrowski who often steals the show with what little screen time he has. One of my favourite movies so far this year and I'm about 50 deep...!

Jeremy Gardner and Christian Stella together have delivered a movie that'll likely split the audiences to some extent, with one side saying the movie inevitably derails itself and the other saying it twists for the unexpected better. For a brief moment, around the middle of "After Midnight", I was very skeptical, but the unexpected better did find its way to me. Jeremy Gardner has long been one of the names in indie horror scene that I'm always looking forward to see credited below a new and intriguing movie, as a director, writer and/or actor. In this case, all three. With a friend, cinematographer and co-director Christian Stella, Gardner offers us a kind of a free-form horror with more than a decent amount of romance. In the end, it's the romance that really sells. Gardner portrays the character of Frank, a thirty-something bar-owner stuck in the small rural hometown he was born in, living together in a remote house with his long-time girlfriend Abby (Brea Grant). When Abby goes missing, Hank's life and sanity starts to fall apart as a mysterious monster comes to torment him every night. Humor, endearment, angst, existential crisis - all of this can be seen and felt in "After Midnight". I'd assume confidently enough that the best way to watch it is to go in blind. The story, as narrow and metaphorical as it is, flows nicely and evenly, while also shifting in ways that some may not expect. Christian Stella's thoughtfully and beautifully composed cinematography coats the emotional vibes up in a befitting visual symphony, there's even a few long-takes, one of which, being just a static dialogue, really stood out to me. Oh, and the whole cast is in on it fully, for indie scene fans there's the awesome director Justin Benson portraying a cop & the character of Wade will surely make you smile at least once. Maybe I can't call "After Midnight" a very substantial movie, but it certainly manages to distance itself from anything that could be called a traditional horror, it captures a sense of melancholy and meaning, ranges from eerie to sweet & shows off great effort by everyone involved. My rating: 7/10.

I watched this film on a recommendation from Vulture, who are usually good at picking gems, but I can only surmise they were paid to rep this particular film. It's one of those movies where not only does nothing happen throughout, but you can actively distinguish the scenes were the director clearly thought they were really breaking new ground - especially when the music supervisor took their turn to showcase some of the most awful music I've ever heard in scenes where no musical accompaniment was called for. The twist, if there's any way to justify calling it that, was so massively telegraphed that it could have been seen from space. If you want to watch a genuinely odd and questioning horror then watch something like The Void instead, it'll be a much better investment of time.

I ordered fries with a side of gravy for take out. The gravy was cold. That's what this film is like, disappointing and pointless.

I loved this movie because I love Henry Zebrowski. He makes every project his own! "Hail Satan"!
