Kiss Daddy Goodnight

About This Movie

Kiss Daddy Goodnight is one of those late '80s thrillers that really leans into its grim atmosphere. The film follows Laura, this baby-faced character who leads a double life, playing the vamp at bars, but there's something unsettling about her charm. The pacing shifts between a slow burn and tense moments, reflecting Laura's own unraveling as the stalker closes in. The performances have this gritty edge, with tension bubbling just beneath the surface. The practical effects, while not groundbreaking, add to the rawness of the narrative. There's a distinct vibe of urban decay, and the themes of deception and survival resonate throughout. It’s a kind of hidden gem that captures a specific time in indie cinema, for better or worse.
