Brian Tallerico RogerEbert.com This is an original, ambitious piece of work that IFC should be able to turn into a buzz generator to start 2026. Sep 23, 2025 Full Review Cody Leach Cody Leach (YouTube) A brilliant concept of corrupt LAPD officers being vampires is completely wasted in an incoherent dogpile of about 15 different films worth of ideas. Clever writing could have saved it but the intended message is as messy and heavy-handed as can be. Rated: 1.5/5 Oct 17, 2025 Full Review Zachary Lee Dread Central It takes a delicate balance to critique these issues while also trying to mine thrills, and it’s not one that Prows always does well. Rated: 2.5/5 Oct 8, 2025 Full Review Matt Donato Daily Dead Night Patrol might be too much movie, a rougher exploitation film that gets lost in overstating its due backlash, but it’s a worthwhile midnighter at the crossroads of gratuitous carnage and meaningful rage. Rated: 3/5 Oct 1, 2025 Full Review Trace Thurman Bloody Disgusting Night Patrol may not fully flesh out its themes by the time the credits roll, but a committed cast and a few standout performances, not to mention the technical prowess on display from Prows, allow the film to rise above its flaws. Rated: 3/5 Sep 30, 2025 Full Review Steven Prokopy Third Coast Review This movie is wild, both for its in-your-face social commentary and for its head-first, savage dive into horror. Rated: 3.5/4 Sep 22, 2025 Full Review Read all reviews
