The Sleep: Survival Horror

Synopsis:
A group of friends are forced through a supernatural psychiatric experiment on Halloween Night where they must survive real-life horrors as well as those unlocked deep within their minds.
More About:
The movie began as a “haunted houses come to life” story, imagining what would happen if young adults went trick-or-treating and the props came to life, killing them. During the writing of the screenplay, amidst a wave of mass shootings in America, Devin, who had experienced a shooting at his school as a child, was deeply disturbed and influenced by their prevalence. He infused his feelings about the issue into the movie, shaping it into what it is today.

"A fresh take on psychological horror."

"A fresh take on psychological horror, with an action/adventure, dark fantasy vibe and that it’s nonstop intense from start to finish. The ending was awesome, the performances were amazing, and the intensity delivered throughout the entire movie!"

"Fun filled horror film."

"Fun filled horror film that gives me Barbarella meets black mirror. I liked the twist and focus on mental health and psychiatric drugs.

"Brilliant."

"I thought it was brilliant. How fitting it is considering the psychology behind it all and is being in the middle of a pandemic and faces with mental struggles unknown to us prior. It was well executed, and everyone gave a wonderful performance."

"Very real. It made me think."

"It was very heavy and something that is true and distributing to me as it's real. Very real. It's kind of not like other movies in that genre because it's got that reality factor in it. More than people know. It made me think."

"Chilling and disturbing."

"A terrifying murderous nightmare."

"A terrifying murderous nightmare. I was very impressed w the acting I believed this was really happening to them. I thought the mass shooting connection w prescription drugs was spot on and an incredible issue to open them discussIon. However being I am directly affected by a mass shooting that occurred in my community, I was sensitive to the subject. I thought the undertone of prescription meds being the cause of mass shooting was spot on and the truth to our reality and the way you wrote it in was brilliant ! Bravo! Bravo!!"

"Very fun to watch!"

"A fun ride. Started heavy and hard, and just keeps rolling with the crazy. Very fun to watch! A lot of twists and turns."

GeeveeSocial Media

"A fascinating topic."

"I liked the concept of how psychology and adaptive behaviors affect the decisions we make and therefore our personalities. Also, besides Devin and Jacqueline being great in their roles (not just saying that, its true)--the actress who plays the Riley is insanely good in her role! Use her for future movies, she is bomb. I also really liked the score and the sound effects which often makes or breaks a good scary movie. I think the discussion of drugs that alter our neuropsychiatry in itself is a fascinating topic. Doctors tend to want to heal (well, not in this movie lol) but sometimes our meds don't have the desired effect and I think its important to explore that concept. "

"Kept me hooked from the beginning to the end."

"The movie takes you on a suspenseful ride. It kept me hooked from the beginning to the end. It made me want to discuss it with someone lol. Just how at times it messes with your mind, but keeps you pulled in, trying to figure out what is going on. Overall Great film, acting, makeup special effects, and I can keep going on. I loved the Originality of this story which sadly some horror films are lacking nowadays."

NickiSocial Media

"A thought provoking movie."

"A thought provoking movie. It makes u wonder if that's exactly what is being done to ordinary people, in todays society... I think there is definitely some truth to it, actually...(imo).. a very well directed film & a superb cast... they did their job, by portraying believable realities , in their characters, among the roles & parts, they are playing... I, myself, give it four & a half , out of five stars.."
