## Resource

Christian Zyp interviews Ryan Prows (director/writer) and Tim Cairo (writer) about their film NIGHT PATROL. See the Canadian Premiere at the Metro Cinema on Saturday May 23rd at 6:30pm. Ryan & Tim as well as screenwriters Jake Gibson and Shaye Ogbonna will be in attendance for a post-screening Q&A. NIGHT PATROL is a 2025 American horror thriller film starring Jermaine Fowler, Justin Long, Freddie Gibbs, RJ Cyler, YG, Nicki Micheaux, Flying Lotus, Phil Brooks, and Dermot Mulroney . It's a cop corruption thriller that’s also a vampire movie focusing on four characters. Ethan Hawkins (Justin Long), the son of a legendary LAPD cop (Dermot Mulroney), who wants to join The Night Patrol, an unofficial, secretive, elite unit within the department that’s essentially a vampire street gang with badges and uniforms. Ethan’s partner, Xavier Carr (Jermaine Fowler), is a Black patrolman who used to be a member of the Crips gang and hopes to rise through the ranks of the police and become somebody who gives orders as well as takes them. Xavier’s brother, Wazi Carr (RJ Cyler), is a Crips-affiliated petty criminal who sleeps on a bare mattress at his mama’s house. He’s in shock over secretly witnessing an LAPD officer murdering someone close to him, and fears a Night Patrol member will kill him to prevent him from testifying about what he saw.
