Too Late

           

          An American Indie comedy from director D. W. Thomas and writer Tom Becker, tells the story of comedy club booking agent, Violet Fields. Violet, played by Alyssa Limperis, works at the comedy club "Too Late" owned by "legendary" comic Bob DeVore. What most people don't know is that on the dark of the moon, Bob turns into a creature with an insatiable appetite for people. 


          The film mixes humor with horror in a silly way, occasionally funny but not at all scary. Co-starring at Ron Lynch and Will Weldon. Fred Armisen and Mary Lynn Rajskub have cameos and the cast features many lesser-known standup comics so there are a few solid laughs. 

           Credit Ms. Thomas for going with prosthetics rather than CGI on the special effects giving the film an old school look. The film never takes itself too seriously. It has a low budget feel but genuine heart.
