Critic Reviews for Don't Sleep

Don't Sleep could have been a great horror movie. Too bad a great topic does not necessarily make a great film.

There's scarcely a new or old horror movie clich that goes unused in "Don't Sleep," a supernatural thriller that tries a little bit of everything - all competently, none memorably.

Don't Sleep practically begs audiences to defy its ill-chosen title.

If you go into Don't Sleep expecting to be scared, you will be disappointed. But if you are looking for a decent plot, good acting, and very impressive effects, give it a watch.

An awkward horror pic.

Don't Sleep probably won't be making any waves of any form any time soon. It's frequently so underwhelming that it crosses over into being flat out boring.

Film Inquiry
This cheap-looking, poorly acted horror movie makes absolutely no sense and is far more awkward and annoying than scary; it falls directly into that "what the heck were they thinking?" category.

Common Sense Media
A young couple's dream home proves to be a nightmare in this formulaic horror movie.

Film Journal International
Don't Sleep is a film that works so hard to make an impression that it risks being remembered for all the wrong reasons.

Eye for Film
Parts of "Don't Sleep" are satisfying, but the majority of the picture struggles to land frights and character insight, shedding appeal as it lumbers towards its bizarre conclusion.

Confusing, heartless, fright-free and sleep-inducing horror exploitation.
