Day Shift (2022)

A father works hard to keep his little girl close and the job involves hunting vampires.

'Day Shift' is an action comedy with vampires. At times it reminds one of Fright Night, especially in the vampiric typology, but also of John Wick. Jamie Foxx is relaxed and appropriate in the role and Dave Franco makes an unexpected comic addition.

Director:  J.J. Perry  

With: Jamie Foxx, Dave Franco, Natasha Liu Bordizzo, Meagan Good, Karla Souza, Snoop Dogg, Eric Lange, Peter Stormare

Rating: 8/10

Constantine (2005)

John Constantine is an atypical exorcist who helps a policewoman solve her twin sister's suicide case.

'Constantine' is a horror-fantasy action movie, based on a comic book series. It was not well received at its time, but the audience learned to appreciate its many strengths: the sarcastic attitude of the characters, the non-(fully-)linear narrative, the clever twist and the full of je-ne-sais-quois portrayals of Gabriel and Lucifer.

Director:  Francis Lawrence   

With: Keanu Reeves, Rachel Weisz, Djimon Hounsou, Shia LaBeouf, Pruitt Taylor Vince, Tilda Swinton, Gavin Rossdale, Peter Stormare
