Feb 11, 2021 · It is a romance movie with a minor horror element. This is uneasy territory for a film that markets itself as horror to tread on. Sure to provoke anger and feelings of being deceived in some viewers. A baffling karaoke scene is painful to watch but sums the movie up nicely. Like After Midnight itself.

So After Midnight features two main characters – Hank and Abby. Hank is a hunter who enjoys living rurally in his old dilapidated house. Abby is a city girl who enjoys arts and culture. A keen fan of wine, she wants to own a vineyard and produce her own. We kick things off in After Midnight witnessing scenes from Hank and Abby’s past. The pair were...
We quickly learn that Hank is falling apart. He can’t manage the bills for the bar that the pair own. He is frustrated by people and short on patience. Hank is carrying a shotgun around his property due to the monster’s presence. When checking his mail, he shoots randomly at someone who nearly runs him over. This prompts a visit from Abby’s police ...
The story really opens up and reveals its true intentions when Abby finally returns. All of a sudden, what seemed like a fairly decent horror movie takes off its mask revealing a romance movie. The pair sit in front of the door waiting for the monster to appear. Abby, not believing Hank’s claims, challenges him to prove it actually exists. She tell...
We learn that Abby was gone for four weeks. While at her reunion, she noticed her ex-boyfriend had a wife and children. This brought to the front of her mind thoughts she had been having for a long time. Abby felt as though she was getting older and was stuck in a rut. She didn’t want to live in the countryside. She didn’t enjoy rural life and coun...
She left due to her lack of satisfaction with the relationship. While she was gone she spent time in Miami, Florida. She experienced different foods like curry and sushi. Went to a baseball game and a jazz show. Spent time in museums and drank wines she couldn’t pronounce. She explains that she is getting older and giving up all of these things tha...
The next day Abby, Hank and their friends gather for Abby’s birthday. They sing karaoke and have dinner. Incidentally, a few of the karaoke songs have some relevance here. Shane sings House of the Rising Sun. A song used in Justin Benson’s movie The Endless. Shane is played by Justin Benson. Wade sings Rock Plaza Central’s “Anthem From the Already ...
We are then subject to a really awkward scene. Hank grabs the mixtape alluded to earlier and puts it in the karaoke machine. He dedicates the next song to Abby and the girl he made the mixtape for. He then sings the entirety of Lisa Loeb’s Stay (I Missed You). Anyone who grew up in the 90s will remember this song. It was, literally, everywhere and ...
The song ends and Hank is shockingly attacked by the monster. Hank manages to create some space between himself and the monster. He pulls the antlers off of the trophy buck mounted on his wall. Something that is symbolically significant. Hank then proceeds to viciously murder the monster using the antlers. The group watch on in shock as blood spray...
So, in summary, Abby left because of Hank’s lack of commitment. She felt her life was going nowhere. Hank understood, realised he had taken her for granted and proposed to her. Once he had killed the monster, of course. So the monster was real but it is, also, somewhat metaphorical. When Abby left, the monster began appearing. It is safe to assume ...
So that’s that. The monster was both real and symbolic of Hank’s fear of relationship commitment. It appeared when Abby left and was killed when Hank was ready to commit. Thanks for reading. I enjoyed this film, despite it being more of a romance than a horror. If you enjoyed this article, why not stick around? I review horror movies, explain horro...
