Wake Up

About This Movie

So, 'Wake Up' is one of those 2017 horror flicks that dives into the unsettling world of sleepwalking. The setup is pretty intriguing—an off-duty cop finds himself up against a supernatural force targeting his sleepwalking wife. The atmosphere is thick with tension, and there's this creeping dread that builds up as the story unfolds. The pacing can feel a bit uneven at times, but it really emphasizes the surreal nature of the events. What struck me were the practical effects; they add this raw, tangible quality to the scares that you don’t find much in today’s CGI-heavy landscape. The performances, while not groundbreaking, evoke a genuine sense of fear and desperation, making it a distinctive entry in indie horror.
