The new movie vampire hunt is from Netflix day shift and provides an old classic: combined action with comedy into a fun, immersive package. It’s also helpful to have a director like Jamie Foxx and JJ Perry.
First-time director Perry, a veteran stunt performer and action choreographer, brings to this film electrifying action sequences, while Foxx and Dave Franco do the opposite. Perry spoke to Polygon about his love for films that combine the three genres action, horror and comedy.
If you have these three ingredients and execute them perfectly, he says. In the general, you will always have the same impact as the audience.
Before he began, Perry specialized in the John Wick franchise. A longstanding friendship and partner of several filmmakers, a longtime collaborator of his own, led to him receiving many screenplays in his first directorial venture. And many of these stories focused on traumatic experiences in the military. Perry, an Army veteran, wasn’t interested in doing that type of work.
Those people sent me a script and all of them were darker, he said. And because I was on a mission, it was because of my army, and all they were: Oh, this is about a PTSD guy, with a sniper who has PTSD. We want you to do a John Wick movie… then I have that kind of done.
When Perry heard about it day shifta movie that the Foxx vampire-hunting Bud Jablonski must get his friends old and new together and take down a whole bunch of bad guys and earn a big score.
When I heard the story – written by the day Shift by Perry, I was thinking that it was that before I heard the script.
The first time I heard that, that he mentioned four movies that combine action, horror and comedy that he grew up watching was to talk about. These films have passed through his mind a lot and his focus on them day shift, and you can see the influence of one of Netflix’s best movies yet. If you liked day shift and want to be reminiscenced, here are Perrys tips.
Little China has big problems.
Featuring: 20th Century Fox Home Entertainment.
The director for the Buckaroo Banzaic project, WD Richter, was working in the movie Big Trouble in Little China, taking this from an Indian in 1880 and making it a modern day martial arts story. The fourth project that I have directed by John Carpenter was, showing Kurt Russell, the only martial arts film he’d wanted to do for a long time.
While great difficulties has gotten famous since the release of the film, the film’s poor reception has left Carpenter unable to go to Hollywood and get into the moviemaking scene. Tom is joined by Kim Cattrall, Dennis Dun and James Hong.
On Hulu, a great problem in Little China can be seen.

There’s a lot to write about Joel Schumacher The Lost Boys a dark, funny coming-of-age book that works like a crazy adaptation of Peter Pan. If there are two more, that’s a memorable concert, which would have been the famous one – the renowned Kiefer Sutherland. The film’s costumes, work and makeup have inspired this film, and Sutherlands Powers is an iconic villain from a time filled with them.
The Lost Boys can be viewed for free in the tubi ads, or by renting or by purchasing digitally on VOD platforms.

In the Excellent Evil Dead movie, and arguably the pinnacle of horror comedy, Sam Raimis original production combines its dark humor and the horror that ravaged the audience. It’s a deceptive feat, and it is that no one but Raimi (and his ship, Bruce Campbell) has pulled it off.
If you saw the bad death for free, you can watch it on Tubi and Pluto TV or purchase a virtual machine.

Tom Holland (no, not that one), is best known for his good performances in child play, spawning the Chucky franchise. But his directorial debut was a vampire movie about a young boy who finds out his neighbor is a vampire. What is this boy doing? He finds a actor that’s a vampire hunter and a witch hunter, in movies to stop it, of course.
You can watch a rough night for free with advertising on Pluto TV, or rented or purchased digitally via VOD.
