A lot of perfectly good film show their cards early, establish a unique premise and let the audience explore a topic at a leisurely pace, without much in terms of surprise. this film is not one of those films.

The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one

It is neither dumb nor smart enough to be fun, and spends way too much time with its boring human characters.

It was really fun watching Vincent Toujas' Noct at this year's Fantafestival in Rome. Wow, what an atmosphere. Already a winner of the Macabre Faire Film and in the official selection of many genre festivals, Noct starts from the predicament of an insomniac where the borderline between what is real and what is part of the protagonist's hallucination gets more blurred at every minute. Powerfully directed, and starring the versatile and convincing Thomas Barraud, Noct was one of the best shorts I've seen at the Fantafestival and one of the few that really scared me. Perhaps it's the effective premise based on the devastating effect of sleep deprivation, but the story just unfolds very persuasively throughout in a very unpredictable and sophisticated way. I also liked very much the photography, capable of emphasizing so many subtle details, and the great music by the director. One to watch!
