The narrative jumps between the present and past, shown through flashbacks. Our protagonist's relationships with his partner and best friend make for lighthearted, often humorous fare, but the pacing drags down the film. The film lingers too much of his emotional state while simultaneously trying just a bit too hard to heighten the mystery of the nightly attacks. Presumably, this is something the viewer should care about, but then the film abruptly swerves into oncoming traffic with the nonsensical ending.

(2019)
Decent acting, suffers from pacing issues and a ridiculous ending
