Joe Keery, known for his role in the acclaimed series Stranger Things, stars in the movie Night Shift (titled Cold Storage in its original version), which promises a mix of horror comedy and science fiction. Jointly with actress Georgina Campbell, the plot centers on two young warehouse employees who must survive a chaotic shift after a mutant fungus escapes from a sealed facility. The basic premise is enhanced by the participation of Liam Neeson as a veteran Pentagon agent who will help the protagonists in their fight to save humanity.
A movie with big names
Directed by Jonny Campbell, known for his work on series like Westworld and Doctor Who, and written by David Koepp, a frequent collaborator of Steven Spielberg on classics like Jurassic Park, Night Shift aims to provide a frantic and fun spectacle. Although some critics may argue that the film lacks depth, it is expected that the movie will provide an entertaining experience to enjoy in a group, evoking comparisons to horror comedies like Zombieland.
The premiere is scheduled for next weekend in Mexico and Brazil, while in the United States, viewers will be able to see it starting February 13. In Spain, we will have to wait until April 24. With a mix of humor, action, and a touch of horror, Night Shift presents itself as an intriguing proposal, although it is also important to keep in mind that it may not be suitable for all audiences. While the film faces criticism regarding its quality, the charisma of its cast and the comedic approach to the story generate positive expectations among fans of the genre.
