Last Shift (2014)

I'm writing this while Last Shift is still playing. It just didn't work for me. Last Shift started boring and irritating me more and more as the movie progressed. None of the many hackneyed horror clichés had the intended effect, part of which is caused by the totally implausible responses of the isolated protagonist, who just doesn't flee the building and doesn't call for help, not even after the most horrific, life-threatening events. Last Shift might be scary if you're an adolescent horror rookie, but for me it was a case of seen it, done it, bought the T-shirt.
