Short Film 'Sleep Tight' Is A Throwback To The Horror Comedy Genre Of The 1980's


Sleep Tight is a Horror / Comedy short film telling the tale of an overly attached father, his wheel-chair bound teenage son and the monster that stalks him in the night. This five minute short is a throwback to the horror comedy genre of the 1980's, specifically the work of John Landis and Sam Raimi, the men responsible for such cinematic masterpieces as The Stupids and Spider-Man 3. That means real practical effects and real creature makeup.

"We love HORROR! Specifically, the practical effects-driven flicks that scared the pants off of us when we were little. Too much horror today is reliant on monsters, blood, and guts generated inside a computer. From CHILD'S PLAY to C.H.U.D, we want to 80's horror to rise again!"

If you like your horror old-school with real, in camera, chills tied together with a lush synth soundtrack, then Sleep Tight is right up your alley. Expect chuckles, mayhem, and monsters!
