The synopsis...

What if you could live forever? What if you had to spend that eternity stuck in a cemetery with only a limbless corpse for a friend, and inmates that were anything but resting in peace? That's the situation for Rue Morgan, night watchman extraordinare. Rue, along with his buddy Herb, spends his nights watching out for zombies, and his days dreaming of a date with hard-nosed day-shifter, Claire (FightingOwl).

Release Date: Currently playing.

Rating: PG-13.

Writer/Director: Thomas Smith.

Cast: Khristian Fulmer, Erin Lilley, and Soren Odom.

Shot in a high quality, digital format "The Night Shift," in colour begins in a suitable location for a horror film, the graveyard. And this fourth film from the "Fight Owl Films," production company does deliver a horror short that is suitable across age groups.

Introducing the characters quickly the story of an undead caretaker who maintains the grounds does have a certain dark appeal. Rue Morgan (Khrisian Fulmer), the caretaker fights off the undead minions of the underworld including a "vengeance demon," all while carrying a skeletal corpse on his back. Soren Odom is the voice of the corpse and all of the acting within the film is well done with a flair for subtlety.

Mostly occurring during the twilight hours "The Night Shift," adds a devilishly, scary arch villain near the finish while adding comedic lines throughout. At just over twenty minutes this horror short shows promise from a talented group of filmmakers. See this film below at the "Fighting Owl Films," homepage and support quality, independent filmmaking.

5.5 Meaty Skulls out of 10.
