Indie game developers Puppet Combo have made their first horror movie with Night Shift, an adaptation of the same titled, retro-style video game that was released in 2018.
Shot on 16mm, and set in the 1980s, the story follows a serial killer targeting late night gas station clerks. Watch the official trailer for Puppet Combo’s Night Shift: The Movie below!

The new movie follows Debra as she works the overnight shift at a minimum wage gas station job. What begins as routine shelf-stocking and floor-sweeping quickly spirals into paranoia, dread, and blood-soaked madness as a masked killer lurks in the shadows.
The slasher is written and directed by Puppet Combo’s Ben Cocuzza, who helmed the game.
Adrianne Knapp stars in the movie with Justin West (“Ghost Adventures”), Phu Mau, and Donald Morgan, plus cameos from YouTubers Justin Whang and John Wolfe.
The upcoming Night Shift movie aims to stay true to Puppet Combo’s signature VHS-style aesthetic and attention to detail for an authentic ’80s slasher-style experience.
