The premise
Anna, grieving the sudden death of her parents, relocates from New York to a small Florida town to live with the grandmother she has never met. Isolated, vulnerable, and in need of friends, she finds brief solace in the company of two local teens. But when she becomes complicit to their unforgivable act of violence, she finds herself ensnared by Mr. Sandman – the twisted soul of a tormented child who haunts bullies’ dreams before feasting on their eyeballs when they finally wake - Anna must right her wrong before becoming a victim of this gruesome curse.
Horror Vault's take
Uprooted by tragedy and sent to live with a grandmother she's never known, Anna struggles to find her footing in an unfamiliar Florida town — until a single terrible decision binds her fate to something ancient and merciless. A nightmarish entity known as Mr. Sandman stalks those who harm the innocent, invading their dreams before exacting a viscerally grotesque punishment. With the clock ticking and the boundary between sleep and waking growing dangerously thin, Anna must confront both the wrong she's done and a supernatural force that shows no mercy. Based on a graphic novel, the film brings a distinctive visual sensibility to its blend of folk-tinged nightmare and creature horror.
