Directed by Phillip Guzman. Written by Jeffrey Reddick. Starring Jocelin Donahue, Jesse Bradford, Jesse Borrego, Lori Petty, James Eckhouse and Jeffrey Reddick.
Plot: a young woman must save herself and her friends from an ancient evil that stalks you during sleep paralysis.
Beth’s (Donahue) twin dies when an “old hag” strangles her while she is sleeping. So, Beth and Evan (Bradford) – Beth’s dead twin’s boyfriend – go in search of help. It really is a conundrum that they find themselves in and it’s a good story. If you believe, she can get you. And if you fight her and win, then she’s gone.
Points for the most realistic home health aide I’ve ever seen on camera. Points for acting, specials and a most macabre old hag. Points taken away for the lack of boob shots and the man bun that the otherwise attractive Jesse Bradford wore throughout the movie. Sorry, but I don’t do man bun.
However, this movie is a good one and we really enjoyed it. So, we recommend it. It’s the best little movie about sleep since Nightmare on Elm Street.
I suppose I could list my favorite movies here, but instead I'll give you a strange glimpse into what makes me TaraRomero.
1. I love comic books. I'm particularly into anything X-Men related and everything Harley Quinn.
2. My celebrity crush is Chris Evans (AKA Captain America). He's even more political than I am and he's not afraid to show it, plus he's really, really hot.
3. I love baseball and more importantly the Boston Red Sox, even though I've never even been to Boston. LOL
4. If I won the lottery tomorrow, after paying off my debts, I'd buy a smallish house somewhere in Southern California. I have got to get out of Texas.
5. My cartoon hero is Tina Belcher. Her and I share a soul.
6. I've been rescuing dogs since I was a teenager and firmly believe that fur babies belong inside and on the furniture.
7. I'm very much addicted to Hallmark Channel. I love their sappy movies, especially the Christmas ones.
8. I have 2 tattoos. An "E" on my ankle for my first lost fur baby. And a ladybug on my wrist named George after George Romero told me he liked it. May he RIP.
9. I'm a bit of a night owl. Not that I go out a lot, it's just that I prefer to be up at night and asleep during the day. I'm a vampire like that.
10. I have an unhealthy relationship with potato chips. My favorite are Herr's Sour Cream & Onion.
