Mister Sleep

TBH I wasn't expecting much from this movie. I just wanted a fun popcorn horror with the boys and this I liked the look of the poster. Yeah, it's a low budget horror, but I was pleasantly suprised. It seemed like a lot of thought had gone into it, the story was surprisingly good, with some great characters who were really interesting - not just the usual crazed killer fodder. It kept us on edge and there were some really good jump scares and shocks in there. Mister Sleep was pretty freaking creepy and there were also a lot of fun in jokes and references to movies like Halloween and Nightmare on Elm street, but it was really original and felt pretty on point, especially with the whole true crime podcast thing. It kept us gripped all the way through and that was down to the quality of the writing and directing (and acting.) Well worth a watch! I'll be watching it again.
