Pesadelos Profundos

If you like Lifetime/TVMovies with more bite and depth, this film is for you.

My mom loved this movie (it has a mother/daughter theme) and she watches that lifetime stuff. I'd say it's better than most of those types of flicks though, cuz the acting in Dying to Sleep is actually good and isn't all cheesy, and the story is more gritty/interesting suspense that you can build clues with, but I'd say it's still in the same vein.

It has that mystery element/woman in peril/female gaze/relationship angle that a lot of those Lifetime movies have. But the Writing is way more engaging cuz it's funny at times, scary some times, and heartfelt also, but doesn't take you out of the movie, like those other writing can do. I'd say the Writing is the best part of this one.

I would definitely recommend this movie if you like trying to figure out mysteries. It's spooky at times, but really is generally more full of hopeful undertones. You have to seriously pay attention to the small details of you want to understand the hidden messages but overall love the full circle themes and characters. Another thing that stood out to me was the music choices for the whole movie, really helped with the dramatic effect and I feel like it pretty much enhanced the entire movie. The director Paris Dylan knows what he's doing for sure and I'm excited to see what other films he comes out with in the future. Hell get this film seen!! I freaking loved it. Watched it twice already (:

This is a greatly paced story with a fantastic ensemble, and a strong, grounded performance from SarahLydia Sophia. The film manages to maintain an eerie atmosphere, all while Mary and her family continue to be the heart at the center and drive the story forward. Director Paris Dylan's very strong sense of visual language and Muneed Rehmans's sharp cinematography gives the audience a sense of closeness, particularly to Mary's near constant state of terror. The story effectively balances Mary's ongoing troubled relationship with her family and the nightmarish journey she continues to experience, contributing overall to her journey coming back to herself.

Got recommended this through a friend who watched it this year. I am passing along the recommendation to others.

I honestly thought it was a horror, just based on some of the articles I found on the project, but was pleasantly surprised to find it ride a sweet line of family themed thriller/drama.

The story is complex, the characters nuanced. For a film buff like me, I loved having to follow along and piece this story (dare I almost say - mystery?) together.

I think my largest takeaways were that, yes, we all have secrets and a past- and yes, we can all make amends with such things with hope of a brighter future. We are not slaves to our minds or weakest selves.

I think this film is a great production, well-directed, with authentic choices on the actors' parts (I especially enjoyed Victoria Baldesarra as Jen and SarahLydia Sophia as the lead, Mary, when seen together), and a nice choice for a night in.

I recently watched "Dying to Sleep" with my teenage daughter, and it was an experience that brought us closer together.

As a parent, I'm usually cautious about the content she consumes, but this movie struck the perfect balance between being engaging for her and satisfying my love for a good thriller. The storyline kept us on the edge of our seats, and the twists and turns had us guessing until the very end.

While I recognize that this movie might not be for everyone, it felt tailor-made for us. It's not often that we find a film that resonates with both of us, but "Dying to Sleep" managed to do just that.

There was one jump scare that was a little too much for my daughter, and I know would be too much for a few of my friends, though.

Highly recommended for anyone who enjoys a gripping thriller that transcends generational gaps.
