Killer contractor is a very slow movie, boring and predictable. I watched it just half of the movie and changed it to another movie instead! You cannot see natural acting of the casts and as a so-called thriller movie you cannot enjoy the story and the scenes if you are a tough fan of horror and thriller movies. I believe that this movie is not worthy to spend time for! I rated 1/10.
Sleep paralysis is a phenomenon in which a sleeping person experiences movement inability. This even happens in many people. Clinically, it doesn't hurt but psychologically is terrifying. Of course the reason is not demon/evil but whatever it is, it makes you uncomfortable. I have had such experiences while napping in the afternoon (and not nights!). I have felt that I want to awake but not able to do so. Something strange. At that point, I feel going deeply sleep (or die!) and then attempting to wake up but it is very difficult. Well, no body dies because of sleep paralysis. Now let us to be focused on the movie.
Accepting the fact that sleep paralysis doesn't lead to death, the movie tried to show us it might takes a life which is fantasy than reality. DEAD AWAKE is a little be chilling but not for me because I am rarely terrified by a horror/thriller movie. If you are an easy terrifying person, then there you go. Watch it! It is just a ghost/evil with funny make up! (I don't like that kind of masks!). This is the first Guzman's work I have ever seen honestly. It was directed well. The story could be more close to reality. Camera setting was good. Designs and decorators were good. Actions/plays were not super duper and fascinating but acceptable. I liked Jocelin Donahue's role. All together, I think this movie had much much more potential to be made in better ways. Don't be afraid. It is a supernatural movie without any gore or slashing scene. I was not disappointed but I will definitely not see it again.

"Here Alone" describes the survival a woman in the woods after escaping from an epidemic viral infection leading to a zombie apocalypse. She needs to hide herself not to be found by zombies. Well, I am not a top fan of zombie movies. This is supposed to be horror film; however, I did not found it horrific and scary at all but had a paint of drama in it. Indeed, Lucy Walters as Ann played very well. This is a merit for the film but the movie story was not fascinating, a lot of crap dialogues which made it slightly boring. I think the other works including make up, filming and directing were acceptable. Overall, I rate it 4 and this film cannot be tasty for anyone.
