Critic Reviews

    a rehashed trip down memory lane?

  • Eric Campos, Mars Colony

    Sleepless is full-force Argento.

    Gorgeous but overbaked "mama's boy" thriller from master Argento.

  • Walter Chaw, Film Freak Central

    The entire exercise is a heartrending one, particularly for fans of the horror auteur who held hopes that Sleepless would return Argento to form.

    It says written and directed by Dario Argento but he isn't capable of such boring garbage. Therefore, I can only assume there's another Dario Argento, his family was held at gunpoint, or he was having a bad day. Either way it's not good.
