I've Seen Better, I've Seen Worse
You ever play a video game and think this would make a great movie? Well, Last Shift is a movie that would make a great video game. As a film though, it is merely decent. It's premise is too far fetched to be taken seriously on film. A rookie cop spends her first shift by herself holding down a police station that is about to be permanently closed. When weird things start happening, she begins to learn about the station's sinister history. Think Assault on Precinct 13 meets The House on Haunted Hill. Now, a plot like that would be forgiven in a video game setting, heck maybe even praised as horror games often lack cohesion. But on screen it doesn't always sit well. And that's the problem with Last Shift. For every good step forward, there's two steps sideways that get the pace off course. However, it does have enough interesting moments to warrant a watch. It will be interesting to see what director Anthony DiBiasi does next as this is a good entry to his slim portfolio. Juliana Harkavy is also solid in the lead role as well.
