"... somehow Grant gives the whole thing a good-natured, scrappy energy that kept me curious to see what would go wrong next, and how she'd get a laugh out of it." - Norm Wilner, NOW MAGAZINE "12 Hour Shift is dark humor at its best, with plenty of violence and unexpected moments of levity to tie into a quirky, entertaining knot." - Kristy Strouse, FILM INQUIRY "A black comedy that continues to escalate the stakes and the humor.
