Don't Fall Asleep

About This Movie

Don't Fall Asleep is one of those lesser-known horror flicks that crawls under your skin. The story revolves around Janice and Sam as they settle into their first home, but the house has a heavy past thanks to Isabelle, a woman who let jealousy lead her to commit unspeakable acts. The atmosphere here is thick with dread, and you can feel the tension building slowly. Janice's sleepwalking and visions of this wild German woman add to the eerie ambiance, creating an unsettling blend of psychological and supernatural horror. The practical effects, while not groundbreaking, are effective enough to enhance the creepiness. The pacing has its moments where it lingers, which some might find frustrating, but that slow burn really amplifies the tension.
