    maybe some lack of free spirit

    The horror genre are divine and rich on genre specialities. ffi is an actual dreadful disease that eventually will kill and therefore food for the filmindustry. i do though feel a bit breezy in my ears when excorcism becomes the last effort. a genetic malfunction, sounds to many religous people like the word of the devil and it shall out. and that is the main point in this film.

    production are mainly onelocation where the meds can observe through mirror glass, its infact a unisex pasient room, that made my browse raise as im a authorised medical nurse. but sick they are and there are some sound shock that may stop your heart, but no more than average.

    actresses in nurses clothing are a beautiful view, so a surplus it is,but nevertheless, its a film for the newbies to horror, at best its on the average on the grumpy old mans scale. a small recommend

    Start by turning off the lights if you want them to sleep

    Everyone in this movie seems to have trouble sleeping. "You look tired, you should go to sleep". "You need some sleep, you should stop for the day."

    The concept of the film is that specialists are trying to help some people with sleep disorders (or something like that), but they're keeping them in a room brightly lit by office fluorescents 24 hours a day... But who the hell could sleep in such an environment?

    The script definitely lacks realism. The film is riddled with nonsensical little details, as if no one had taken the time to revise the whole thing before launching the project. For example, when a VCR is turned off, the screen turns blue, it doesn't switch to a snowy screen (that's when a TV channel loses it's signal).

    It's obvious that the actors are inexperienced, but you feel they've been given a chance, and they try their best.

    The bad reviews are well-founded, but it's still a little film to watch on TV when there's nothing else on... It's not a complete failure.

    Liked it

    This is such a refreshing change from the crop of screaming teen in a cabin kind of movies that seem to be popping out by the dozen.

    The story is strong, the acting is mostly great, and the production is well thought out and implemented. There are perhaps one or two silly moments, but on the whole the movie comes together well and is a good watch.

    Poor to rotten

    Basically a nowhere fast movie where nothing happens. A woman is worried to distraction over her brother who hasn't slept in days. Weeks, even. She fears for his life, but some - those in the know, fear for his soul. And his life. And their lives. Apparently if you don't sleep for a monthish a foreign demon gets ya. This could have been scary good, but not this time.

    Very good for what it is and even better for what it isn't.

    For a first time director with a limited budget you can't get much better. No money for massive vfx and OTT gore so subsequently stays within its boundaries, thus uses atmospheric lighting, sinister sounds etc. Don't expect polished Blumhouse, think when they first started. Only fault, well it is padded out to a degree, could have cut twenty minutes.
