Poster For ‘The Nightmare’ Promises “The Scariest Place On Earth”

Published

on

Badass Digest has scored the exclusive poster for the upcoming documentary The Nightmare, which tackles the subject of sleep paralysis and how it manifests for eight people who suffer from this disorder. The poster simply shows a pillow that has obviously been slept on while showing the tagline, “Welcome to the scariest place on Earth”.

Directed by Rodney Ascher (Room 237), the site describes the film:

The Nightmare recreates the hypnagogic hallucinations that these people experience…[showing] terrifying shadowmen, spectral cats, sudden spiders and menacing spirits…

The above link also leads to an interview with Ascher, who himself suffers from sleep paralysis. He describes one event where, “…a ‘shadow man’ (and really, it was a black silhouette of a man but three dimensional) walked into my room and leaned over my bed. I was certain it was supernatural, and EVIL and it was the reason I couldn’t move or yell for help.

The Nightmare comes out in theaters and on VOD on June 5th.

‘Dead Mail’ Exclusive Images: SXSW Horror Movie Begins With a Blood-Stained Postal Box Delivery

Dead Mail SXSW Dead Mail interview

One of the genre films we’re looking forward to checking out at SXSW this year is Dead Mail, written and directed by Joe DeBoer and Kyle McConaghy and premiering on March 9.

Meagan Navarro will be reviewing Dead Mail for Bloody Disgusting as part of her SXSW coverage, and she writes in her preview for the upcoming fest: “Dead Mail leans heavily into the ’80s analog aesthetic, delivering a unique crime thriller unafraid to get offbeat with its dark narrative. Expect its characters to be as atypical as Dead Mail‘s sense of style.”

In the SXSW 2024 horror film…

“On a desolate, Midwestern county road, a bound man crawls towards a remote postal box, managing to slide a blood-stained plea-for-help message into the slot before a panicking figure closes in behind him. The note makes its way to the county post office and onto the desk of Jasper, a seasoned and skilled “dead letter” investigator, responsible for investigating lost mail and returning it to its sender. As he investigates further, Jasper meets Trent, a strange yet unassuming man who has taken up residence at the men’s home where Jasper lives.

“When Trent unexpectedly shows up at Jasper’s office, it becomes clear he has a vested interest in the note, and will stop at nothing to retrieve it…”

Sterling Macer, Jr., John Fleck, Susan Priver, Micki Jackson, Tomas Boykin, and Nick Heyman star in Dead Mail. Preview the film with an exclusive image gallery below.
