cast of October Kiss ( source ) Four beautiful movies that touched my heart this Holiday Season/these Holy Days: Another Christmas Kiss a.k.a. Christmas Kiss(2014); Hitched for the Holidays(the only thing about CHRISTmas and Hanukkah -2012); October Kiss(2015); and A Midnight Kiss(2018) A MIDNIGHT KISS This movie is close to my heart because I was once a party and event planner who moonlighted as a singer and host(conventions, parties for corporations, weddings, kiddie parties etc.).  I also gave a lot of dreams in the name of "loving my family" and prioritising then, so this hit some soft spots.  Story wise, I love it.  Did I think they were a believable couple?

Dad and I became curious because when we were channel surfing. this movie was about to start in a few seconds.   Story-wise, it lacks depth, but it is thrilling and interesting enough for one not to leave the theater, room or wherever else that person is watching this story.   The Purgers are futuristic Klu Klux Klan types.  Yea...
