Dream Demon
“Two women trapped in a savage nightmare...”

Higher CrapScores mean more entertainingly bad. How we score movies.
A bride-to-be's nightmares spill into a house with an unhappy past, leaving an American visitor tangled in the mess. There are enjoyable practical gore effects, but the dream rules keep slipping out the back door. An odd late-night detour that needs more patience than its premise suggests.

Synopsis and movie facts
As her marriage to decorated war hero Oliver draws near, well-heeled Diana moves into an apartment within an otherwise unoccupied, sprawling London house where she starts to experience strange and terrifying nightmares. But are these troubling night terrors merely the symptom of an unsettled mind, or the sign of something far more sinister at work? Hounded by a pair of sleazy journalists, Diana soon crosses paths with American tourist Jenny, who appears to have a strange connection to the foreboding house and its dark past.
