Much of the more buzzy content coming to theaters and streaming services is now based on books as source material. Remember that trailer with Lady Gaga that everyone was talking about a few weeks ago? It’s the one where she makes the sign of the cross and fiendishly promises “Father, Son and House of Gucci”. This film is based on that of Sara Gay Forden The House of Gucci: a sensational story of murder, madness, glamor and greed. Matt Damon / Jodie Comer’s new movie The last duel, meanwhile, is based on a book of the same name which tells the story of the last legally sanctioned duel in medieval France. Apple just finished filming part of its upcoming limited series Five days at the Memorial – based on Sheri Fink’s book about a New Orleans hospital during Hurricane Katrina – in Toronto, and preparing to move to Louisiana. And the new one released Night books The Netflix movie is also based on a children’s book of the same name, from 2018.

Like this one from The New York Times, which notes on Night books director David Yarovesky: He “has a knack for the tricks of light – shadows, neon night vision, and silhouetted movement – and the film is most delightfully frightening when it favors visual flair over jumping fears.”

In the opinion of this writer, the Night books The Netflix movie has one edge that makes it too good to be left out. Two words: Krysten Ritter. She brings a convincing recklessness to this kind of role that could have ended up much more two-dimensional in the hands of less acting talent.
As the fan montage below shows, she’s a campy and delightfully evil witch in this movie. One that is worth watching for its participation alone. Really, that’s almost always the case, whenever you see its name attached to a project.
