The Night Watchmen is a horror-comedy movie that was released in 2017. Directed by Mitchell Altieri, the movie features an ensemble cast including Ken Arnold, Dan De Luca, Kevin Jiggetts, and others. The plot of the movie revolves around a group of night watchmen who work at a local newspaper. Their mundane routine is interrupted when a group of vampires invade the building with the intention of taking over the city. The watchmen must unite and use their wit to fend off the vampires and save the city.

The movie starts with the introduction of the night watchmen - Ken, Jiggetts, and De Luca. They are shown complaining about their boring job and the lack of action. Just then, a truck delivers a coffin to the loading dock of the newspaper building where they work. Unbeknownst to them, the coffin contains a vampire and his minions who have been sent to take over the city.

Soon after, chaos ensues in the building as the vampires start attacking the employees. The night watchmen are the only ones who are not turned into vampires and must fight back to save the day. They are joined in their fight by a feisty reporter named Karen (played by Kara Luiz), who had been covering the story of the vampire invasion at the newspaper when the attack started.

What follows is a hilarious and action-packed ride as the night watchmen and Karen use everything they have at their disposal to defeat the vampires. They are armed with everything from staplers and paper cutters to hockey sticks and hot sauce.

The movie is a perfect blend of horror and comedy. The night watchmen, with their witty banter and goofy antics, add a touch of humor to the otherwise gruesome and grotesque vampire attacks. The special effects used in the movie are also impressive, with the vampires shown as scary and menacing creatures.

One of the best aspects of the movie is its casting. Ken Arnold, Kevin Jiggetts, and Dan De Luca deliver strong performances as the night watchmen. They have great chemistry on screen, and their back-and-forth banter adds to the comedic aspect of the movie. Kara Luiz is also wonderful in her role as Karen.

The movie is not without flaws, however. The pacing of the movie could have been better, as there are certain scenes that feel too dragged out. The character development could also have been improved, as the night watchmen are not given much backstory. However, these flaws can be overlooked, as the movie overall is a fun and entertaining ride.

In conclusion, The Night Watchmen is a must-watch for fans of horror-comedy movies. It is a refreshing take on the vampire genre, and the cast delivers strong performances. The movie is sure to keep you on the edge of your seat, with its blend of humor and horror.

The Night Watchmen is a 2017 comedy with a runtime of 1 hour and 20 minutes. It has received moderate reviews from critics and viewers, who have given it an IMDb score of 5.4.
