Dream Demon (1988)

Dream Demon (1988, GBR) C-89m. **½ D: Harley Cokeliss. Starring Jemma Redgrave, Kathleen Wilhoite, Timothy Spall, Jimmy Nail, Mark Greenstreet, Susan Fleetwood. Rather potent, terror-filled splatter horror that draws its inspiration from new classics such as NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET (1984) or HELLRAISER (1987) without being innovative. Virginal Redgrave is harassed by reporters just before her marriage to a celebrity and starts having nightmares of the gory kind. A woman who tries to help her is also drawn into them. Technically apt, but rather meaningless, alas. Worth seeking out for gorehounds.
