Mike After Midnight: The Late Night. One Take. No Sleep til its Published. Movie Reviewer.
Mike After Midnight is a weekly movie review podcast recorded late at night usually after the opening of a movie. It’s recorded late because Mike can’t get to the theater until after his kids bedtime and immediately after the movie is the next best time for him to produce a podcast. Hosted by Mike Allen, this is a casual, fun take on horror, psychological thrillers, and the dark movies that hit my radar. Expect quick turnaround reviews with what actually worked and what didn’t, a heads up on the content, and simply is the movie is actually worth your time. There will be swearing. There may be spoilers. You might laugh.

But even with some freaky ...
