Killer Night Shift (2018 TV Movie)
7/10
Strong in all areas, for what it is, very good.

Warning: Spoilers
It's a straight to TV movie, so relatively low budget, yet this is a very strong thriller in a muchly overdone genre. Its well acted throughout, story is (suspend disbelief) believable, script is good, its well lit, well shot and well directed. All the leads fit their characters well. I'm only marking it down for lack of originality, the trojan baby-snatcher has been done to death, for the ludicrous body burying scene - in a movie which is somewhat believable throughout, this stuck out like a sore thumb, and for the nurse running out to confront the nutter. For the sake of a few days plot jiggling, this could have very easily been ironed out and then this would actually be one of the better films in the genre. For a TV movie, quite excellent, and overall, strong in all areas - considering I normally steer a wide berth of this kind of flick, I was impressed.
