On the DVD Review Block: 'Last Night'

New DVD reviews is live over at DVD Verdict, and this time, I wrote up a piece about "Last Night" on Blu-ray. It's essentially a dark tale of temptation focusing on a married couple who are trying to resist hooking up with other people.

Here's a quick quote from the review: "Although clearly not a film for the masses, this little indie gem boasts a few incredibly powerful performances that make up for the occasional simplicity spreading across an otherwise engaging script.
