It stars Asjha Cooper, Frabizio Guido, Mason Beauchamp, Abbie Gayle, Craig Tate, and Keith David.

The website's critical consensus reads: "It may not be particularly scary, but Black as Night has just enough bite to satisfy audiences in the mood for dark, teen-focused supernatural drama.

[5] Denis Harvey of Variety gave the film a positive review and wrote: It works well enough as a teen supernatural melodrama, reasonably slick if a tad silly - less well as straight-up horror, let alone as a commentary on race-centric historical and political issues that never feel more than pasted-on here.

[6] Andrew Murray from The Upcoming gave the film 3 out of 5 rating and he wrote: Black as Night is an enjoyably pulpy, but flawed genre outing.

Its deployment of social commentary puts an engaging twist on a familiar premise, but a scatter-brained execution sours the taste.
