Stepping into the director’s chair for the first time is always a challenge, but for veteran TV and movie producer
Randall Emmett that challenge was amplified by the COVID-19 pandemic. What was planned as an 18-day shoot, ultimately took a year thanks to shutdowns in various filming locales.
But launching the true crime thriller “Midnight in the Switchgrass” starring Bruce Willis, Megan Fox,
Emile Hirsch and Lukas Haas has proven to be just as nerve-wracking, particularly due to the continued uncertainty around COVID.
Directed by Randall Emmett.
Starring Bruce Willis, Megan Fox, Machine Gun Kelly, Emile Hirsch, Michael Beach, Jackie Cruz, Lukas Haas, Caitlin Carmichael, Sistine Rose Stallone, Welker White, Sergio Rizzuto, Tyler Jon Olson, Olive Elise Abercrombie, and Katalina Viteri.
SYNOPSIS:
An FBI agent and Florida State officer team up to investigate a string of unsolved murder cases.
The fact that
Midnight in the Switchgrass is an all-around terrible movie comes as no surprise, but there is a sting since for star Megan Fox, it’s coming off a career-best and physically impressive performance in
Till Death that suggested she’s more than just a pretty face and should be taken seriously as an actor. All things considered, Megan Fox probably is indeed a better talent than she does get credit for, but there’s a sinking “oh no” feeling early on when first-time director Randall Emmett can’t get believable intimidation or fighting out of her here.

Midnight in the Switchgrass ()
Bruce Willis (DIE HARD franchise) and Megan Fox (TRANSFORMERS: REVENGE OF THE FALLEN) lead a powerful cast including Emile Hirsch (ONCE UPON A TIME.IN HOLLYWOOD), Lukas Haas (INCEPTION), and Colson Baker (BIRD BOX) in this gritty and intense crime-thriller. While in Florida on another case, FBI agents Helter (Willis) and Lombardo (Fox) cross paths with state cop Crawford (Hirsch), who’s investigating a string of female murders that appear to be related. Lombardo and Crawford team up for an undercover sting, but it goes horribly wrong, plunging Lombardo into grave danger and pitting Crawford against a serial killer in a twisted game of cat and mouse.
