Sarfaraz A Jason Yu wrote and directed his debut South Korean suspense thriller. Jung Yu-mi and Lee Sun-kyun play the lead roles. The film follows a couple, an actor and his pregnant wife. The wife is scared and annoyed by her husband's sleep talking and sleep-walking; he scratches his cheek so hard in his sleep that it bleeds, consumes raw meat and fish from the fridge, attempts to jump off the balcony, and the next day, the home pet dog is discovered dead in the refrigerator. It is discovered that the spirit of the lower floor's elderly tenant has infiltrated the husband's body. The film contains several effective scare jumps, and while there are no ghosts or ghouls in the film, Jason makes certain to terrorize the viewers when the couple falls asleep. The film also confuses the audience halfway through when the wife begins to behave erratic, leaving viewers to wonder if the wife is to blame for everything. Jason has exploited sleepwalking as a captivating subject for a thriller. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 10/21/24 Full Review Kenneth L This was just an ok ghost story (or was it?) I do not get the hype around this movie. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 10/19/24 Full Review Audience Member Absolutely fantastic. The character dynamic of the couple is so fun, very relatable, with lots of levity and love, which really adds to the tension of the danger that could tear it all apart. The only qualm I had with this film was the very very end. No spoilers, but I just felt like it warranted one short scene or two to fully resolve some things, but it also sort of makes sense where it ends because it could be argued as very ambiguous in what happened. But I wish there was one final scene to either confirm this was being ambiguous or if it was just them wanting to end it where it did. But other than that aspect, the film was so masterfully done, very carefully executed, and just a fun wild ride Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 10/03/24 Full Review Ralphie S Didn't know what to expect going in. This one is brilliant. A must see. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 10/02/24 Full Review B P Sleepwalking Turns Horrifying for New Parents Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 09/28/24 Full Review Glenda N I loved sleep! A dark, comedic, supernatural psychological thriller! The characters were very relatable as a young couple navigating the social pressures of marriage and starting a family. With the pressure literally written on the wall in the form of a plague stating” together we can overcome anything. “ or something to that effect. When the husband begins to have a sleep disorder, the question becomes, stress or possession? And the director leaves the outcome up to the viewer. I highly recommend this movie Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 09/27/24 Full Review Read all reviews
