Synopsis

A traveling psychic who helps lost souls cross over encounters a powerful entity at a remote house. While investigating its origins, she uncovers dark secrets and faces a deadly threat from an unexpected source.

Moviegoers are saying

Dave Boyle's 'Never After Dark' emerges as a masterful genre-bending ghost story that cleverly subverts haunted house conventions, with audiences praising Moeka Hoshi's captivating performance as a medium who must banish a living person instead of a dead one. While some viewers found the pacing uneven and the ending confusing, most were mesmerized by Jonathan Snipes' divergent score, stunning cinematography that plays with shadows and light, and a memorable boozy dance sequence featuring Sharon Udoh's haunting vocals.

A slow-burn ghost story that seems to be playing into convention even as it sneakily plants the seeds to turn the genre on its head, Dave Boyle’s clever and involving “Never After Dark” starts with a rather familiar premise: A medium is hired to expunge a dark spirit from a…

Fantasy FilmFest 2026 So that’s a good start, old school spine-chiller like out of the good old times. The setting has something of The Shining, the story is more a classic necromancy. There is an old hotel mansion in the middle of the woods. Ari is a young medium that…

“So, you’re like a traveling Ghostbuster?” I liked this a lot. The premise alone is fantastic: a ghost who is somehow alive and dead at the same time. It’s such a great supernatural concept, and the movie has a lot of fun playing around with what that actually…

Always intrigued by Dave Boyle's Eastern/Western storytelling like MAN FROM RENO or HOUSE OF NINJAS so I was already invested on the idea of Boyle doing a horror movie. And what he created is beautifully haunting (or hauntingly beautiful?) that transcends stereotypical…

Spooky little haunted house story! A bit slow to start and the pacing feels uneven, but once it picks up it's a thrilling paranormal ride. Really dug the visuals on the ghostly stuff.

This is the type of film that was concocted in a lab for me. The way it combines supernatural ghost story with serial killer stuff is very impressive and it worked really well for me. It’s also shot really well and a lot of the scenes had me on the edge. And I loved how the…
