Bobby LePire Film Threat Apr 5, 2021
4/10
The screenplay for The Dead of Night is dead on arrival with its poor characterizations and by-the-numbers plotting. This makes a lot of the film rather dull and frustrating, as everyone is an idiot. Go to Full Review Josh Bell Crooked Marquee Mar 30, 2021
C
