“What would you do to clear a debt?u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eRetired Hitman, Mickey Santini (played by Ben Silver) is drowning in it and Mob Boss ChaoFeng Mei (played by Crystal J. Huang) wants payment in full. Knowing he doesnu0026#39;t have the funds, she sends him on one last hit…and heu0026#39;ll be in the clear. Unbeknowst to him, itu0026#39;ll be his last…or will it? Once there, he locates his target and someone has already taken him out; unsure what do he takes refuge in the house only to be attacked and taken hostage by the supposed killer.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eAfter being interrogated by the killer, things seem to take a strange turn for the worse as robed figures begin appearing in the darkness of night. Being a skeptic and nonbeliever in the supernatural, it takes Mickey some doing. After several unexpected events, he joins forces with his new friend Charlotte (played by Amber Doig-Thorne) whom have taken refuge inside the house to fight the daemonic forces and to survive till dawn.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThe buildup of the story and how the finale comes to a head is cooly done, especially when Levi (played by Chris Sanders) comes in and takes the reins.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThe plot of the film reminds of one of my favourite UK films, Ben Wheatleyu0026#39;s u0026#39;Kill Listu0026#39; but on a micro budget and beautifully shot.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThe visual effects (ie. Fog, the Interior, u0026amp; etc.) are class and proper done very natural looking. The special effects, to be honest some worked really well; some you could tell the actors were wearing masks, but the costumes and the gothic decorations kept you in the illusion of the film.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThe actors themselves did a wonderful job, aside from a few that could use more work in front of the camera but you could tell that everyone was having a blast and enjoying themselves which is the important part. The camera work and the colours and the way you see England with the cinematography is awe inspiring.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThe film was directed by Randy Kent and written by Chris Sanders. Chris has written and directed several other feature films that he has collaborated with Kent. Some of these films include: the upcoming u0026#39;Werewolf Cabalu0026#39;, u0026#39;The Haunted Studiou0026#39;, and u0026#39;Bring Me A Skin For Dancing Inu0026#39;.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eDemons at Dawn is Available to watch on Tubi for all of those interested.”
