After Midnight 2019

I can't "wholeheartedly" give this a recommendation, since it is a pretty pedestrian rom(ish)-com(ish), horror-adjacent, sorta dramatic movie where the poster/thumbnail gives away the ENTIRE plot (change my mind). That having been said, however, it's pacing and atmosphere is just good enough to keep you from checking to see what else is on. Nothing Shakespearian, but, decent performances from the leads Jeremy Gardner, and Brea Grant as the non committal couple, (working with what they were given) with kudos to Henry Zebrowski as the drinking buddy / pseudo wingman Wade, who has your back and gives you a much needed hug when the shizz hits the fan and your life is going a bit pear shaped. ONE good jump scare, and a few meh ones, with no explanation as to the origin or motivations of the Wendigo like critter. Anemic on the blood / gore scale, although there ARE kitty nom noms, and several cases of "pnut" wine consumed. ;-)
