Sleep Tight (2023) dives into a chilling narrative that grips you right from the start. The film’s atmosphere is thick with tension, as it explores grief through a horror lens, presenting a unique take on the genre. The pacing is deliberate, allowing the tension to build gradually, which gives the audience space to absorb the emotional weight of the characters’ plight. The practical effects here stand out, feeling grounded and raw, enhancing the sense of realism. Performances are solid, especially the mother-son duo, who bring authenticity to their struggle against the malevolent force in their home. It’s a fresh angle on the horror trope that doesn't shy away from the emotional aftermath of tragedy.
