More About "Night Shift":
“Night Shift” follows 18-year-old Cheryl and best friend Darcy as they waste away the Summer of ’85 waiting tables at the only diner in their middle of nowhere Oregon town. Suffocated by small-town conservatism and her sexist high school reputation, Cheryl longs for the day that she can finally ditch Myrtlewood and her vengeful ex, Scottie, for good. But after falling victim to a mysterious late-night animal attack, Cheryl undergoes a strange transformation that pushes her friendship with Darcy to the brink and pushes her to bite back against her tormentors once & for all.

Hi everyone! I’m Karlee Boon, the director/producer of “Night Shift.” 🐺🍒 Thank you all so much for taking the time to watch my film. A coming-of-age story at heart, Night Shift was my way of exploring the complexities of female adolescence, growing up in a small town, and finding your place in the world, all through an ‘80s-inspired horror lens. The film was shot in Portland, Oregon across 1 day and 6 nights in October of 2021, and features some truly iconic PNW locations like Skyline Diner and Milwaukie Bowl. The original score and soundtrack (one of my favorite elements of the whole film!) was composed by the incredible Mel Guerison and features a healthy mix of doo-wop, shoegaze and new wave inspired tracks. If you have any questions about the film or the inspiration behind it, please leave a comment below. Don't be shy, I won't bite :) 🩸
This was a 10/10
Hola, como estas?
Two minutes ago!!!!!!!@@_nwoony
I enjoyed it so much!!
You did such an amazing job!
Thank you for this! It was really good!!
that's why you never bully or harass a waitress, you never know what she gonna do...spit on your food, or eat your internal organs.
If you spit in my food that is an incoming lawsuit to the restaurant and employee!
@@bosswhale422😂 you'd not know kiddo 😂😂 Seriously. Knew a guy worked at Wendy's when I was in school. Told me the guy that had to stir chili so it'd not burn all shift would indeed spit in it. I worked a decent restaurant as dishwasher when I was 20. The other guys wouldn't even prewrinse the plates. I got to day shift an one day set the machine to clean around 10am. The new boss / owner wasn't happy. It'd take better part of an hr for machine to use the chemicals an clean itself w hot water. Then I'd drain clean strained food out refill machine etc. Yeah just FYI that was my 3rd if 4 months u worked there. Only time it was ever cleaned. So just keep telling yourself how superior you are an your foods so clean. Those other guys didn't give 2 fucks. They'd set the plates out to be used w cheese stuck on them. It'd be up to the cooks to look first an if they cared or not getting $9hr 😂
I liked the 80s setting, I enjoyed watching Cheryl and her friend howling in the moonlight... 🌕🐺🏍💨
Thank you for watching!!
What do you call a vampire who works the night shift at a fast food restaurant?
Count Spatula!
😐 👉🚪
👏👏👏👏👏
@@bosswhale422 be nice
Cheryl kept reminding me of Ginger from Ginger Snaps with the blond streaks and makeup. Absolutely loved this film. I think this has to be one of my favourites.
Ginger Snaps was a huge source of inspiration for our lead character, Cheryl! Thank you so much for the kind words! :)
Glad I wasn't the only one to think of Ginger Snaps. Happy that little film from the Great White North draws inspiration 24 years later
I have always wanted a bestie like that. I never have, and I never will.
i feel you🥲🥲
I’ll be ur bestie you deserve a good friend
they are more than besties
I know the feeling. And yet, never say never.
That's the spirit 😂
back in the day it was easier to come out as a werewolf than a lezzie
Are they both fictional?
Lmao ginger snaps
Cheryl looks like Chappel Roan. And Darcy sounds like Sydney Sweeney
Lmao so many people have said the Chappell Roan thing! 😂 Thank you for checking out the movie!
A best friend as a werewolf talk about having full protection someone that truly have your back LOL😂😂😂
Night shifts are really scary, I mean even in real life. I do night shifts and often got scared ( maybe because i watch scary movies).
Waitresses have one of the toughest, scariest jobs I'm the world. Power to you.
I worked opening shifts (4 am) at a hospital convenience store and coffee shop (think the official name is a travel store), this shit you see fucks with your head. anyone doing night shifts or graveyard shifts I have massive respect for and always tip extra if Im out late/ early.
@@connorkeefe2483 You're extremely sheltered
@@godofmath1039 lol
@@godofmath1039 says the guy who's never been a waitress
This video is a very scary
I loved it. Thank you! Blood, fangs, revenge, and friendship. Gives me the warm fuzzies. LoL 🙂👍👍
A Goth version of "Two Broke Girls".
This is so funny to me 😂
The spit was the scariest part!
Scottie had a full tank? Awesome film!
The only thing I found hard to believe.
@@unspeakableoaf Maybe there some money in the jacket.
Good thing Cheryl knew how to ride a motorcycle. I'd still be stuck there with my thumb out trying to hitch a ride, whilst covered in blood.
Bro spoiled 😭😭😭
Great werewolf movie! The 2 ladies must be bffs in real life, very believable friendship.
It was so cute watching them bond over the course of the project!!
Excellent work from start to finish , let's get a part 2 ❤
That's a true bestie. Ride on ladies...ride on.
She look like Chappell
They get that a lot...😂
frr
I had to scroll to see if I was the only one who thought that lol
It was a bit intense at the first few minutes but I loved the rest of the short film but what nearly made me tear up was when Darcy said “we won’t see each other again” 😢😢 but nice film anyway ❤❤❤🩸💀🐺
Part II! WHERE is part II???
I've been hooked on the Alter horror films this morning. LOve your content!!!!
When I first found Alter I binged all the shows, now I wait very impatiently for the next ones to come out
@@korrinaaniansnowball3012 I love their work so much! I understand that for sure!
I enjoyed watching this to the very end. Well done! Great acting, cinematography and soundtrack.
Karlee, I have to thank you for your amazing movie, it was heartwarming, and the background music made it splendid. Instead of giving us the typical werewolf movie, you create something unique and faithful because real friendship stays forever.
This is truly "partner in crime" what is about..wolf wolf wohhhhhhhhuuuuuu....
Wonderful Fabulous ❤
Oh. My. God. This was absolutely perfect. The 80s vibes was NAILED RIGHT IN THE HEAD. This was so good👏👏👏👏
We all know a Scottie. It is so satisfying seeing the revenge! Great movie, I felt it to my core! 🖤🖤
Great story. Even better ending. It really did have an 80's feel to it. Well done.
Can we acknowledge that that’s the same area that Michael Jackson’s intro to thriller was filmed in but you didn’t hear it from me lol
Had to pause my cleaning for this!😂😂😂😂
This is a really good movie. Great work to everyone involved.
I’d love to see a part 2 of this. Love the 80s w the whole werewolf thing… felt like there’s some lgbt mixed in there… but I’d def love to follow these two on the next chapter of their friendship!!!! Give me more!!!
Yes yes to all of this!! Hoping a feature length version is down the line ❤
So far my favorite short film. Really. I loved it. I love the 80s vibe. The soundtrack was awesome and fit perfectly. The writing was not bad and the acting fit the 80s theme without being to corny. Overall just like a real cinematic experience because it is. I am a fan now.
The beauty in this was actually amazing. The display of friendship, of LGBTQ, of stupid ass boys. I really wanna have this life story honestly ❤
Thank you so much for watching! :)
Of course!!
Im sorry no offense but how is there lgbtq in here? Theyre only close friends
Did you not get the love between the main character and the werewolf girl we meet??
@@feathered_fang huh?
Loved the retro vintage look.. i really haven't watched in a long time. But this one got my eye. Very cool. Loved the makeup. 👍👍
Thanks so much for taking the time to watch the film!
This was EPIC. I loved it. Loved the actresses, too. They gave it their all. Howling at the moon!! 🌙 🌚 ✨️
Nice low tech effects that really show her transformation-👍🏽. it's always fun to howl at the moon!
This is quality film making and casting, omg. I love everything so much!! Kudos to director K. Boon and ALTER for making this happen.
LIKING THIS JUST FROME THE HEADBUTT!!!! Amamzing video!!!
What a good acting and soundtracking, it felt really real to see that kind of reactions between best friends ❤
I really enjoyed it. Great little tail(tale)! Liked the howl at the end.
BEAUTIFULLY DONE!! Really really loved it. 🖤
One of the best ALTER films!!
It's like Ginger Snaps meets Ghost World :)
Wow I love this comparison 💯 thank you so much for watching !
Absolutely fantastic.
Hope see more of this film or series.
This is one of my favorites! The ending was 💯
4:30 she missed for sure and the camera was like nah you suck
I was blown away by the film! The two main actresses were amazing and the was superb and directing was spot on !
Loved it I like how it’s tells us how the story line counts to the lord of the video
3:49 holy dam, i think she needs to go to the doctors 😂
I loved the ending. We all wish for a best friend, for life, just like that. How beautiful to see it, here. Happy tears, at the end. ❤😊🥲
Legend says that they were just really good friends 😅
THESE MOVIES HAVE EVOLVED SOO MUCH ❤❤🎉🎉
🤗…yay!! Loved it all, especially the ending! 🫶
Would love, to see their further adventure's!!.
This was amazing. Perhaps my favorite ALTER so far.
Fits well with Ginger Snaps, and Ginger Snaps 2.
Absolutely love the Ginger Snaps series!
😍😍Yassss. I need more of this!!! Reminds me a little bit of gingersnap the movie
Good one. Would like to see a follow up.
I enjoyed this. It had a nice Ginger Snaps vibe, but with a happier ending. I'd love to see a longer adaptation.
I finally get to watch! Wooo! I remember donating to this! Let’s go!
Thank you so much for the support, I'm so glad you were able to check out the final product :)
Liked the 80's vibe mixed with Ginger Snaps. Never made my way to Portland but I'm hoping to see the Pacific Northwest one of these days. The main girl definitely reminds me of Chappell Roan.
That was. Crazy! Reminds me of the howling
Certified Gold!!!!!
This was some Ginger snaps stuff 🤣🤣🤣🐺
This was cute like watching Thelma & Louise but in the horror version I give it 2 thumbs plus my 2 big toes so 4 all the way up
Yesss! Thelma and Louise was a huge inspiration for the film, along with Ginger Snaps and Fast Times at Ridgemont High. Thanks for watching! 🎬
That was so much fun! Great job to everyone involved! Loved it!
this Latino guy looks like Ramirez "The Night Stalker".
🎯
Gracias por poner subtítulos en español saludos desde chile 🇨🇱
A kind of story between Ginger Snaps and Thelma & Louise
Yeah, I was thinking Ginger Snaps throughout this film.
I looooved this!!! Everything about it. A definite multiple re-watch! ❤❤❤
I would love a sequel to this 😊
I really enjoyed this!!
This was fucking amazing. 100% the best short film i've watched in 30+ years
Thanks so much for watching! 💓
Bravo! Very nice work!
LOVE LOVE LOVED THIS!!!!!
Reminds me of Ginger Snaps but with a happy ending
Apreciada Karlee excelente película corta ,la disfrute y ciertamente es un interesante argumento con ese ingenioso toque de terror.....bravo!!!🎉🎉😊👍
Beautiful story
Love your short films
I think i found my halloween costume this year
20:22 Scotty look like richard ramirez an they just like hi scotty😂
for the decent acting, editing/sounds and music it's unfortunate the sfx makeup at 7:49 is the most terrifying part of this short - i mean no one is expecting masterclass applications but they didn't even try blending in the edges and just slapped that ish on there. 💀
So what, it was still good and better than most shorts on here. They done a great job!
@@blackice51374 sure, and like i said it had pretty decent acting, good editing/sound work and good music selection, but it's also ok to call out very poor special fx quality when one can't be bothered to even smooth an edge of some latex prosthetic.
Great work❗
Greetings from Costa Rica 🇨🇷
Absolutely LOVED this!! I think with a little extra writing and scenes this could totally be a full length movie!! I would most def watch it! Especially with the 80s vibes it gives off! I miss 80s horror movies!! They really were the peak of perfection! And I think the director and writer captured all of that perfectly!! All of the actors did a phenomenal job of playing their parts as well! If I didn’t find this on my own and someone played this for me and said it was a piece of a horror movie from the 80s…I wouldn’t have questioned it at all. Lol
Wow thank you so much for taking the time to write this, it means the world! The goal is definitely to expand this into a full length feature :) Thank you for appreciating those 80s vibes!
@@bitethehandfilms7374 absolutely!!! As someone who’s love of horror started with all the 80s and early 90s horror movies, it def gave me a nostalgic feeling! Can’t wait to one day see the expanded full movie!!!
Pretty good short film.
Can we get a part 2? 😊
One day, hopefully...!
great soundtrack!
Loved it!
Awesome 🤩🔥
That was AMAZING idk why but the ending made me feel emotional. The song, the true friendship, everything tied together beautifully !!! Also does anyone know the ending track ID?
Amazing job
Were these short films made for TV or for 5.1 surround? The voices seem a bit quiet to me :(
Great short! Well done to all involved.❤❤❤
What's the first song name???
And history will say they were roommates.
Loved this
Beautiful 🖤
I swear I had the same jackets Cheryl was wearing at the party. I was a tween/teen in the 80s.
