Adam K Nice to see early DennisHopper at 215am but noy much charater developmemt or action.He certainly did improve over thr following decades (WaterWorld excepted). Rated 2/5 Stars • Rated 2 out of 5 stars 12/30/24 Full Review Jens B 🎃 "Night Tide" holds a similar value to "Little Shop of Horrors" with Jack Nicholson: it offers a glimpse into the early careers of significant actors. This doesn’t mean that much actually happens here. We watch Dennis Hopper wandering around Venice Beach in his sailor uniform (what a shithole) and encountering a mysterious woman. Perhaps she's a siren luring lustful men to their doom...🃏 And then, well, not much else happens. There are conversations with a retired British captain who has the hand of an Arabian thief preserved in his living room cabinet. Or a tarot card reading that I barely remember. Or a surprisingly homoerotic massage scene.🧜🏿‍♀️ Apart from that, there's a lot of coffee with the carousel woman, Dennis Hopper fooling around with a human-sized octopus, and eventually with a mermaid. Then some mysterious drama unfolds, and that's about it. I might have slept through important parts, but otherwise, this is a pretty sleepy film with zero scares. But thanks to Mr. Refn for the restoration—it looks great. Rated 2/5 Stars • Rated 2 out of 5 stars 10/05/24 Full Review JJ H If you love a film that makes up in creativity what it lacks in budget, this one is a gem. In black & white, the direction and cinematography really capture the foggy, windy atmosphere of a California beach. It's not all sunshine! Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 10/17/23 Full Review Audience Member Just awesome. I can see why this is soo highly regarded as a horror classic. You can see it's influence all throughout the genre. It's a tragic tale, and it's excellently done.
