Joey Menzel’s debut feature film, Night Shift, has landed on Amazon Prime, seemingly out of nowhere.

After the death of their mother, two destitute brothers rob a service station in an attempt to pay off the mortgage on their family home. But a time lock on the safe containing the money forces the would-be thieves to start taking hostages, as their simple plan spirals out of control.

Written, directed and edited by Menzel, Night Shift stars Jesse Morton (Red Sky: Candidate 5238), Georgia Walters (The Spy Who Never Dies) and Anthony Winnick (No Appointment Necessary). Menzel was an associate producer on Matthew Holmes’ (The Legend of Ben Hall) Twin Rivers.

Night Shift is available now on Amazon Prime.
