Synopsis

MIDNIGHT SON is the story of Jacob, a young man confined to a life of isolation, due to a rare skin disorder that prevents him from being exposed to sunlight. His world opens up when he meets Mary, a local bartender, and falls in love. Tragically, Jacob’s actions become increasingly bizarre as he struggles to cope with the effects of his worsening condition. Forced by the disease to drink human blood for sustenance, he must control his increasingly violent tendencies as local law enforcement narrow their focus on him as a suspect in a series of grisly murders.

Hellen I like the storyline of this show,it attract me so much
Alicia I love this movie so much
Pluskylang Great Film overall
Philippa All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.
billcr12 Jacob works a night shift as a security guard in a building in Los Angeles. He has a rare skin condition, preventing him from being able to be out in the daylight. He develops a need for blood, which he satisfies at first, by getting it from a butcher. His body soon rejects the animal source and he finds a way to buy the human variety from a street hustler. He meets Mary, a strange girl selling candy and cigarettes outside a club. They begin an offbeat romance of sorts, and the first time they try to have sex, Jake's eyes turn cat like, and Mary leaves. When she returns and sees paintings of sunsets, she asks to take one home. An art gallery is shown the work, and Mary convinces him to let her try to sell them at a show. In the meantime, the vampire artist/security guard, struggles to obtain fresh blood. The romance is on again, off again, as the odd couple dance around the truth. The story is a standard one with two very good performances by Zak Kilberg and Maya Parish. They have chemistry, and made me want to see them make it and survive their troubles. It is certainly a step above the Twilight series of Stephenie Meyer.
ogreen336 man this is a load of crap! seriously, i mean it took the whole movie for him to come to the full fact that he is a vampire! the whole movie! the only sensible kill is the last few seconds of the movie and that was purely coincidental. just like take shelter, where are these producers/directors/writers getting these half baked and malnourished ideas to put in a movie? its so lame and corny. the dude saved the girls life only to leave her locked in a room dying of hunger and still has the nerve to return without any blood for her, if that cop wasn't on his tail she would have most likely died in his stupid pathetic arms. this movie is rubbish.
RockDragon Got to see this at the Toronto After Dark Film Festival. Wasn't really expecting a whole lot, as these are generally low budget movies. Except, this film ended up being the type that transcends the need for a large budget.Can a movie about Vampires feel plausible? This one can. Everything was done with subtlety and grace, there was no need for suspension of disbelief. There were no unbelievable premises, sparkles or holy water.Ultimately, there are lots of issues that could be applied allegorically to this particular brand of vampirism. It could have been a story about AIDS, Drug Addiction or Religious Zealots. Any condition, communicable, debilitating and ostracizing.The casting was great, characters seemed organic and multifaceted. Everyone has their flaws and they are better for it. This is a gritty, raw film which never treats the audience like idiots. Never causes one to ask why, or shake their head in idle disbelief. It is smart and honest, authentic and unyielding.A great first full length effort which will hopefully propel the careers of all involved.
AriellaJS-1 I took my meetup group to go see the premiere of this movie and we all loved it! We even had people in our group who were not vampire movie fans and they loved it too. The characters are well developed and the movie seems to blossom and unfold as you get to know the characters and they get to know themselves. Beautiful effects, and cinematography. The tone of the movie is reminiscent of classic vampire films and (thankfully) balances out the modern trend of teen friendly idealised young romantic vampire movies. Fantastic acting writing and directing. Highly recommended for Vampire fans, Independent movie fans, horror fans, and people who like real down to earth and offbeat movies. Not for children!
