Okay I kinda love this film and how schizophrenic it is tone- and genre-wise. Like, are we a slasher film, a road horror film, a political message film, or a psycho-family-thriller? Fuck it, let’s be all of them. I think the former 3 elements are my fave segments of the film and leaning into that would have made the film work better. I adore how the film attempts to weave in social commentary especially around racism in rural areas, with its black characters, especially Hank my baby boy.

I wish the film had focused entirely on Hank and Tom (the guys who pick up our final girl) as protagonists, because I found them more interesting and compelling than the final girl (can’t even remember here name). Their friendship is so cute and 💕⭐️🫂, and I was really devastated when they died. Such an empty feeling and it shows how effective a horror film is when you care about the characters. They were lovers in my heart.

Outside of those 2 boys though, this film is kinda a nothing burger, so I’m just glad they got a substantive amount of screentime.

I really love the witchy and culty aesthetic of the film, and I think the film should’ve been a road slasher while still keeping those aesthetics. The kills are quite brutal too.

But oh well, this is still a great time to spend 90 minutes.

Midnight is a very weird film that feel like the first draft of the script,The only good thing i can say about this was the killers maybe i'm a bit biassed as i really love John Amplas but the idea of the murderous family is quite interesting and i do wish they spent more time developing the family over the survivors especially when you're just going to kill them off quite quickly but there's one thing that really is a turn off for this film and that's the way they try to make the stepdad a hero even though our main protagonist ran away cause he sexually assaulted her so why try make him the hero.
