Welcome back to Mike After Midnight, your late night, one take, no sleep ’til it’s live movie reviewer.

In this episode, Mike navigates the murky waters of 28 Years Later: The Bone Temple, a sequel that dives deeper into the human psyche amidst a zombie apocalypse. With a unique perspective on humanity’s darker side, this installment continues the saga of Spike, who transitions from a sheltered child to a young man confronting the brutal realities of a world ravaged by both the undead and the living.

Mike shares his thoughts on the film’s character development, the chilling portrayal of human nature, and the subtle nuances that set this series apart from typical zombie flicks. He reflects on the film's pacing and the emotional weight behind the relationships formed, particularly between Spike and the enigmatic Dr. Ian.

In this episode, Mike dives into the murky waters of Primate (2026), a film that promises nature horror but delivers a lackluster experience. With a rushed narrative and a failure to build any suspense, Mike reflects on how the film robbed him of excitement and left him questioning the choices made by its characters. From the uninspired kills to the underwhelming CGI, he lays bare the missed opportunities that plague this flick.
