Come check out a great new horror film and some chat! A jam packed horror filled Friday night! drafthouse.com/austin/show/...
neutral · AI labelView post →NEVER AFTER DARK is a crackling fire of a movie, eerie lights and shadows, atmosphere and danger. A simple story, expertly told, about an exorcist who takes a job with an unexpected wrinkle. It's not getting much attention so this is your clarion call: Don't ignore it.
positive · AI labelView post →Looking for a new horror movie to watch this weekend? I recommend NEVER AFTER DARK. Moeka Hoshi is captivating as a medium who helps lost souls cross over, but finds herself entangled in a mind-bending ghost story she's not prepared for. Some very creepy moments and a terrifying reveal. On VOD.
positive · AI labelView post →"We love a horror movie that looks at four different genres and says, 'Yes.'" Never After Dark spans ghosts, haunted hotels, personal tragedy, and exorcisms in a Gothic tale that actually unnerved @leahschnelbach.bsky.social:

neutral · AI labelView post →Went to see Never After Dark. Japanese horror film. Quite good. Ghost story with elements that remind me of the John Constantine comics. I wanted to throttle the guy 2 seats to my right who wouldn’t sit still and caused the whole row of seats to shake, however.

neutral · AI labelView post →Never After Dark is a great ghost story movie. Seems like today's the last day it's playing here, only a single-week run. If you can see it tonight, give it a shot. Love the main performance from Moeka Hoshi. Great ghost stuff, fantastic music, just a huge surprise. Check it out!

neutral · AI labelView post →Night 11 of #31nightsofhorror: Never After Dark, a recently released film that's a decent enough ghost story, but doesn't quite match up against some of the others on our list this month. (Granted, it's a pretty stacked deck with Kwaidan, Kuroneko, The Woman in Black, and Exhuma.)

neutral · AI labelView post →There’s more than one haunted hotel movie out this year! Dave Boyle’s Japan-set ghost story NEVER AFTER DARK (★★★★) toys with familiar J-horror territory, then quietly turns into a classical ghost story: a slow, sly mystery where there’s more to be scared of than a simple haunting. Recommended!

neutral · AI labelView post →This is kinda bonkers. On the one hand, the first Pulse remake is a contender for one of the worst of all time, and you never really need to touch a Kurosawa movie if you aren’t Kurosawa. On the other—NEVER AFTER DARK is a really, really cool movie and I’m super curious about Boyle’s take.

positive · AI labelView post →Oh also— I was not at the Friday Night Fright last night and neither was Chad… because we chose to go see Never After Dark. Which is a Japanese horror film where it was going to be a bit of a struggle for us to see it at any other time. It was so cool. Go see it!

neutral · AI labelView post →Watching Never After Dark Starts as a melancholy Japanese ghost hunter movie where Airi and her ghost sister go to exorcise a B&B with a touch of the Overlook about it.It bimbles as a creepy ghost story for an hr then twists,and becomes something surprising and more effective. Rather clever and good

neutral · AI labelView post →Just saw Never After Dark tonight and it is phenomenal. Maybe it’s recency bias but this might be the best/my favorite horror movie I’ve seen this year in a very good year for horror movies. Highly recommend if it’s playing near you.
positive · AI labelView post →And now, we’re basically caught up. I decided to follow Never After Dark with another “scary hotel” movie: 12: Hokum An abrasive author (Adam Scott) travels to the hotel in Ireland where his parents honeymooned in order to scatter their ashes. Also the hotel has a witch.

neutral · AI labelView post →Dave Boyle's NEVER AFTER DARK is now playing at the River Oaks Theatre, and this film rules! This gruesome Japanese ghost story suckers you into thinking it's a charming riff on THE FRIGHTENERS before pulling the rug from underneath you. It's got gnarly gore and heaps of heart. Don't miss it!
