‘One last case. Terror in the moonlight.’
12 to Midnight is a 2024 horror thriller about a detective, despondent after the murder of his wife and forced to resign, who is brought back to the force when a serial killer appears to be taunting him and turns out to be supernaturally superhuman…

The Cannon Fire Productions-Delirium-Millman Productions-Ron Lee Productions-Salem House Films co-production stars Robert Bronzi (Exorcist Vengeance; Escape from Death Block 13; The Gardener; Cry Havoc; From Hell to the Wild West), Daniel Roebuck, Helene Udy, Sadie Katz, Tito Ortiz, Destiny Leilani Brown, Searra Sawka, Patrick Voss Davis, Valerie Bittner, Tom Parnell, Juliet Biscotti, Lukas Stoiber, Eric Francis Melaragni, Evan Strand, Tristan Ott, A.C. Bernardi and Sarah Cugini.
Our review:
This passable time waster offers nothing new, playing not only on Robert Bronzi’s bizarre career as a Charles Bronson lookalike but also cheekily connecting with the latter’s 10 to Midnight movie (1983). The ‘mystery’ identity of the killer werewolf becomes blatantly obvious, Bronzi is more laughably wooden than Bronson (as usual), and the briefly glimpsed werewolf makeup is hokey. Nevertheless, it’s ok if you’re prepared to accept the sheer obviousness of everything here.
Meanwhile, one onanist reviewer gleefully mentions brief female nudity, though it’s not present in online versions and if you’re looking for ladies to get naked, then clearly you can easily find that elsewhere rather than in a horror/thriller hybrid.
