Open 24 Hours

2018 ·1h 42m · ★ 5.5 (153)

After setting her serial killer boyfriend on fire, a paranoid delusional woman gets a job at an all-night gas station. The isolation triggers her anxiety and hallucinations, with devastatingly gory results.

Why it matters

A grim, grindhouse-tinged descent into paranoia and blood-soaked isolation that channels ‘70s slasher grit through a modern indie lens.

  • A one-woman show anchored by a raw, unfiltered lead performance that sells every twitch of dread and madness.
  • Practical gore effects that recall the tactile brutality of early John Carpenter and Tom Savini collaborations.
  • For fans of claustrophobic, psychotic breakdowns in horror — think “The Battery” meets “The Night Flier.”
  • Not for the faint-hearted or pacing purists; the film's rough edges amplify its unsettling, DIY charm.
