Why watch this film?
Alice is a rational-minded sleep doctor, haunted by demons of her past. While performing an examination on a traumatized family with sleeping problems, Alice is attacked by the father in his sleep. After he is arrested and blamed for causing the family’s sleep issues, the problems get progressively worse. Alice is forced to abandon scientific rationale and accept that the family is being terrorized by a parasitic demon who feeds on the weak while they sleep.
"Perhaps the most horrifying thing about facing a threat is not being able to escape it. 'Sinister Nightmare' starring Maggie Q in a great leading performance, is inspired by the notorious cases of sleep paralysis and gives a terrifying supernatural twist. Hopefully watching it doesn't take away your desire to sleep."
