Sleepless Beauty
83 Minutes, Not Rated
Written by Aleksandra Khvaleeva
Directed by Claudia Zie and Pavel Khvaleev
From Epic Pictures/Monomania Films
Synopsis:
Mila is kidnapped. The unknown abductors keep her in an old garage, talk to her through a loudspeaker, and set strict rules: she must not sleep but has to fulfill weird tasks that they’ve prepared for her. The girl doesn’t suspect that she’s part of a ruthless experiment.
Sleepless Beauty is a Polish horror film. While dubbed into English, none of the written materials (social media postings) are translated, so that’s a challenge.
And we suppose it could be compared to Saw.
Oh, and weirdly, it takes 19 minutes for the title to appear on screen. Right?
But, since we’re going to talk about this film, well–I’m going to talk about this film, since Ryan can’t talk right now (literally)–we won’t say any more right now. Instead, here are your obligatory out-of-context quotes to whet your appetite.
- “Once she is in the room, that is all we need see.”
- “it’s what happens once she is outside of the room…”
- “and to say that might be giving it more credit than it is due.”
- “I likened it to some of Terry Gilliam’s old animation sensibilities, but if he’d been on acid at the time.”
