Slumber

If you've seen a couple of horror movies, nothing much will surprise you in this. "Twists" are not really there - not even in the ending. I'm surprised some would call it a twist or "reveal". It is actually pretty obvious, I didn't for a moment think anything else was going on.

So this is decent overall, with shock effects and a story that is easy to follow. Based on something real - there are quite a few things we can't explain that happen when we sleep. Which can make the mind make up stuff quite easily ... or is it not made up? Well whatever you may think of such fantasy and horror, will determine if you're entertained or not

Slumber isn't a great horror movie , far from, but for most part of the movie I've been entertained. The concept of the movie is good, but it clearly could have been much better with a bit more effort and a higher budget. The monster or demon is poorly done, just a bit of shadow, so there it failed a bit. The acting was okay for some actors and poor for others, no-one of those actors will ever be Oscar winning actors. It's the story that keeps the movie entertaining, with some good suspense. The story is inspired by true events, at least that's what they say, but I have serious doubts about that. All in all I was entertained for a good part of the movie, besides the end part then.

This horror movie really had potential. Especially since its plot was so interesting.

But a failure to bring the horror to life on the screen resulted in a very flaccid and monotonous horror movie that offered nothing much of any interesting to anyone, unless this is the first time you watch a horror movie.

Maggie Q was performing quite well in "Slumber", and she managed to render the movie bearable to watch.

There is a frightening lack of scares in the movie, and the night hag looked interesting the first time you saw it in the hallway, then it just became a mediocre CGI creation after that.

This horror movie offers nothing worthwhile to the horror genre.

If you are like me, you just want to be entertained for a few hours and Slumber fits the bill. Slumber isn't an awful movie, it isn't a great movie but the production is good and the acting is good. Not a bad way to spend a few hours.

The idea of a demon attacking people in their sleep causing nightmares and sleepwalking is very interesting. Could be really scary since we all have to sleep and we all have our own fears. Unfortunately, this movie is a big disappointment. I like to watch horror movies at night (most scary) and in this one, somewhere around the middle of the movie, I literally fell asleep. The first half was mostly boring and the second half was missing some real action and a good solution. I also didn't feel any real connection to the main characters. No real character development. It wasn't the worst movie I've ever seen. It was just very mediocre and the ending was very predictable. Shame! I think that with a better script and probably a bigger budget someone can make a real good movie out of this idea. Good luck next time!
