The mind behind ROOM 237, a documentary that explores the batshit crazy interpretations of Stanley Kubrick’s THE SHINING, will be hitting the Sundance Film Festival in January with his new film, THE NIGHTMARE. Directed by Rodney Ascher, THE NIGHTMARE focuses on exploring the demonic visions experienced by victims of sleep paralysis and provoked by his very own unsettling experiences with the condition. With the announcement of its world premiere, we now have some new stills that continue to make this documentary look absolutely terrifying. Check ‘em out below.
“This project was a once in a lifetime opportunity to cross-breed two genres I love, documentary and horror. After exploring people's real-life waking nightmares in long, free-flowing personal interviews, it was a bizarre trip through the looking glass to bring them to life and get lost inside of them on the set,” said Ascher.
The horror documentary is produced by Ross M. Dinerstein (THE PACT, THE DIVIDE) and Glen Zipper – producer of the Academy Award winning film, UNDEFEATED. The film is executive produced by Content Film President Jamie Carmichael (THE PACT, BLACK BOOK) and co-produced by Tim Kirk (ROOM 237).
