“The Night Watchman” (*1/2 out of four) was a molasses-moving melodrama not worth watching about a former convict (Matt Horan) who returns to his dead-end hometown after 2 years and takes a job as the night watchman of an abandoned mine but begins to suspect that a sinister presence is watching over him and the rest of the town. Don’t look for more plot than that or much else either. Film is part small-town melodrama, part character study, and part moody horror story and is an all bore. Director Miguel Angel Jimenez obviously watched “The Deer Hunter” a few times before making this but this fires all blanks.
