Upon arriving at a remote cabin in the redwoods, Kath (Winona Ryder) and her boyfriend (John Gallagher Jr.) find a mysterious young couple (Owen Teague and Brianne Tju) already there -- the rental has apparently been double-booked. With nowhere else to go, they decide to share the cabin with these strangers. When her boyfriend mysteriously disappears with the young woman, Kath becomes obsessed and enlists an unlikely supporter (Dermot Mulroney) with finding an explanation for their sudden breakup -- but the truth is far stranger than she could have ever imagined.

Even when the story doesn’t pop, Ryder is terrific. Go to Full Review

2.5/4
Despite the star performance by Winona Ryder and an intriguing setup, Gone in the Night is destined to fade quickly from our memories. Go to Full Review
Damon Wise Deadline Hollywood Daily 09/16/2023
The good news is that Ryder is easily the best thing about Eli Horowitz’s debut feature, a twisty thriller that packs a lot of intelligent ideas into a puzzle structure that, somewhat counterintuitively, takes the viewer’s attention away from them. Go to Full Review
Marshall Shaffer Decider 12/06/2022
This pseudo-genre fare can’t commit to much of anything and, as a result, becomes mostly nothing. Go to Full Review
Pete Vonder Haar Houston Press 09/16/2022
2/5
The premise is an overly familiar one, but one that could still work if we hadn't spent half the movie chasing red herrings that would've been a lot more interesting. Go to Full Review

Mr. Hollywood 07/29/2022 With a better director and someone other than Ryder this couldve worked. Started interestingly enough but then it fell flat. See more Tony 07/21/2022 Movie was really slow and was no action or horror. Movie sucked wouldn’t recommend it to anyone else. In fact already steered a few people away from it. See more Margaret 07/20/2022 It was very disappointing, almost stupid. It was a waste of money. We loved the other two movies we saw in the last two weeks, but this was soooooooooooo below par. See more Demaurice 07/20/2022 I couldn't follow the plot of the movie, it didn't make sense to me. Skip this one!! See more peacefairy 07/19/2022 Slow and really doesn’t keep your attention. The real show was in the next theater over where obviously at least one woman was fighting. See more JP 07/17/2022 Twist I wasnt expecting! Love Winona Ryder and Dermot Mulroney!
