Dream Demon (1988)
1/10
Waste of my time
2 September 2023
No doubt this film appeals to people - judging by its IMDb rating, but I found it quite boring. I didn't want to waste any more time on it. But after stopping and restarting the film about 5 times, I got to the end.

It was a task to get through the darn thing.

There's no story. Just this young woman dreaming nightmares about her soon to be husband, people she knows, and the house she lives in crumbling. I thought it might lead somewhere after the first 30 minutes but it's the same thing over and over again.

There's also this other woman who sort of gatecrashes the life of the protagonist.

Both women are there for each other through the nightmares.

There's also a newspaper photographer and journalist who are there in real life and in the dreams.

As I said, some people like this kind of film. I read one other person's review who said it was an underrated gem. There's a reason it's underrated, there's no plot, and the script could have been written by a 10-year-old.

This film was an utter waste of my time.

1/10.
