Nightmare (2009)

- written September 4, 2009

Summary: Jason Scott Campbell stars as a film student. He meets an acting student named Natalya at a party and they end up together later that evening. When they wake up, they find a video camera pointed at the bed and find what appears to be a snuff film, with the two of them starring as the killers. And yet, they can't find any evidence of the scene anywhere. Desperate for an idea for his film class, he pitches the previous night’s events as his film. Everyone agrees this could be good but his film can only work when more weird things happen to him. The lines between dream, reality really start to blur as our Director gets more involved in the project while still searching for answers on what is actually happening.           Overall: For those looking for something new, different and not the usual slasher film, you’re gonna love this film. It‘s complex, it’s a reality check, and it’s dripping with originality. Every scene questions what you know to be real or dream. I made sure to watch some of the directory commentary and they love the “movie within a movie” concept here. So go an enjoy a copy of “Nightmare”!           Comparison: Urban Legends 3 meets Jacob’s Ladder
