Awful story
billcr1220 April 2012
Warning: Spoilers
I was fooled by the poster with the topless woman in panties standing in front of a man tied to a chair to watch this drivel. It all begins with blaring, ominous music and split screen shots of a woman in a short skirt, sunglasses, and wig, chewing gum at an airport terminal.

Two men leave a bar with a couple of bimbos and get into a limo, a rock star type with shoulder length hair, apparently a reality TV producer named Spencer is listening to his buddy Lance beg him for a shot at a pilot show.

The previous girl in a wig is walking along a street and places a suitcase in some bushes. Shortly thereafter, Lance is near his front door and the mysterious girl approaches and seduces him quickly. They go inside and drink some vodka while she dances provocatively. Up to the bedroom where she finds tapes and video recording equipment. They exchange some pointless banter and engage in coitus. He tells her that he has never had sex with the same woman twice and asks her to leave.

After a shower he hears noises and the lights go out. She manages to put a knife to his throat and ties him up and forces a new routine; intercourse for a second time with the same girl. In the meantime, Lance has named her Alison. Ally plays a game allowing three phone calls to see if anyone is a good enough friend to rescue him and they aren't.

A series of unlikely events occur and Lance is back in the picture and more unbelievable things happen. The acting is barely tolerable and the story is laughable. Do not waste your valuable time with Night Vision.

Wow, it was bad

Okay, so I suffered through the movie. BUT, I do think there is something here. If we had Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie, with a competent sound, editing, cinematography crew, and a few major alterations to the script and story, I think this could actually be a good movie.

All I'm saying is that the premise and the psycho girl plot line could go a long way for a good thriller -- the subplot with making this a reality show somehow was pretty stupid but if you got some big Hollywood backing and took an ax and scalpel to 40% of the film.. you might really have something :)...

I just realized everything I just wrote would apply to any bad movie, so yeah okay it was bad.

I just think there is something you could strip out of this to make it a good Hollywood thriller. I wouldn't recommend it but sometimes you gotta branch out and see what the indie filmmakers are doing out there. I feel like I've done my part for the next several months.

I Thought It would be a comedy film
FilmMan4723 December 2012
Warning: Spoilers
really mean it i thought it would be the funny movie where the girl would mess the guy up in a funny way but this was weird experience.

too bad i bought the DVD of this film,anyway the plot is about a man named Spencer a TV show producer who gets trapped by a woman & ends up being a hostage.

the story could have been great as the concept was not new the kidnapping & revenge theme is done billion times besides some sex scenes & funny dialogs the lead lady who played Alison did some good acting.but this film is ridiculous i tell you.

night vision is just a time pass & one time watch movie.my rating is 4/10.

WOULD YOU LIKE A BOX?

Warning: Spoilers
Spencer (Darryl Dougherty) is a womanizing reality TV show producer. Lance (Ali Adatia) is trying to pitch him a new show, one where you watch a man's life get destroyed. The womanizing Spencer doesn't like it. Reality shows must have scripts because real life is boring. The show must create excitement, and people must believe it.

The film opens with thriller music as we see a woman(Noelle DuBois) hiding a suitcase. The music was far more exciting then what was on the screen. Later that same woman shows up at Spencer's door "selling cookies." Spencer invites her in and she films them having sex using his equipment. She leaves with the tape. (Who uses tape anymore?) Spencer believes the woman is certifiably crazy.

When the house loses power, Spencer discovers his security system doesn't have a temporary battery backup, like the one in my trailer. The movie turns into an abduction film.

I fell in love with Noelle during the film, but Dougherty's character was substandard. I also enjoyed the haunting tune "Envy" by Daily Jane played during the end credits. They really needed to have worked that into the film.

Parental Guide: F-bomb, sex, nudity (Noelle DuBois)

It just keeps going

Seems so long with more of the same after more of the same. It's not like any other movie you will see. I think Spencer deserved everything he got. In fact it wasn't enough. That's because she loved him in her own way. He got off lightly. She should have killed him too. I would have loved to have seen her cut his dick off and feed it to him. He was a piece of trash. I was hoping she would cut off his hair and cut his face also. The movie was far too tame, but that's because she wanted him. With a different chick there might have been some horrible ass rape with a knife and so on. You know, something slightly more entertaining.
