by Midnighters is a New Year’s Eve Nightmare!
I recently had the opportunity to watch “Midnighters”, a film about a couple in a tense relationship, where things get even more. . . complicated. 
I really enjoyed Midnighters because it was a great combination of suspense, dread, and me being very tense and nervous the whole time. The premise of the film is that a couple driving home from a New Year’s Eve party (drunk), hit a person, and further chaos ensues. This movie was filmed really well, with a skilled small cast. It was a movie I liked watching and wanted to keep watching. I especially was intrigued by Ward Horton (Smith) and Alex Essoe (Lindsey). Their characters were enjoyable but also so tense to watch. They did a fantastic job. I was also pumped to see the girl that played B.B from Kill Bill! Her name is Perla Haney-Jardine, and she is all grown up!
This was a movie I will be recommending to others to see. It was so well-made, and definitely an edge-of-your-seat thriller!

The film has compelling and complicated female leads played by Alex Essoe (Starry Eyes, Tales of Halloween) and Perla Haney-Jardine (Steve Jobs, Spider-Man 3), along with strong performances by Dylan McTee (MTV’s “Sweet Vicious”) and Ward Horton (Annabelle, The Wolf of Wall Street).
