Graveyard Shift is a contemptible piece of crap. That it was based on the wonderful and creepy short story of the same name is even worse. The story and the film have very little in common. The monster in the film is NOT in the book and I highly recommend that you read the story and forgo the movie entirely. The movie itself is horribly done with horrible acting save the performance of Brad Dourif, who is always good. Brad must have been hurting for money because this is obviously just a payday for him. Bottom Line: Unless it is your mission to watch every film based on King's work, forget this movie ever existed and go back to your life, which is better off without the memory of this movie anyway.
