When She Wakes - Fürchte Deine Träume

Ridiculous waste of time. Little to no plot. Terrible acting. Nothing "thrilling" about the movie at all. What was the purpose of this nonsense??

Just didn't really care for it & don't really recommend it all that much.

I don't like it when a movie promises to be a thriller or horror film and then turns out to be a Lifetime Movie of the Week. The setting, the acting, the editing and the script were the same kind of mediocrity I get from the tube, If you are bored, like I was last night, it will pass the time.

After She Wakes is a decent horror/thriller, one that should be looked up by fans of the genres, because it does manage to deliver an ok story with some good acting as well. It surely does become predictable at some point, especially for those who have had their share of such productions, but still, keeps you interested long enough to get you to the finish line.

The execution is ok, the effects stand tall, even tho they are quite minimal, character development is present and a pretty interesting plot developing here. It doesn't stretch for too long, keeps it at 1 hour and 15 minutes, and I always appreciate this, because a lot of movies tend to expand in order to fill up maybe 90, or 105 minutes, but After She Wakes showed exactly what it had in mind and stopped right there. A great example of less is more.

I do recommend it for horror fans out there, I can't say for sure that those enjoying a good thriller will get a blast from this one, but as a indie horror, it works quite ok.

Cheers!

-1 Star For Having a Shower Scene with no nudity. There is no reason to have any scene in a shower with no nudity. Hitchcock did it in the 60's but his movies were actually GOOD, so he gets a pass. Everyone else?? Nuh uh.

-1 Star for the stupid sequence with the ex husband

+1 Star for the Ending!!!

Okay this one really didn't have anything going for it at all. Giving it 4/10 is probably being way generous .
