When an experimental drug trial goes horribly wrong, seven young test subjects, after being kept awake for days, must face the terrifying side effect of the drug: if you fall asleep you die. Trapped in an isolated medical facility, they desperately try to find a way to reverse the side effects of the trial, as one by one they succumb to sleep and death. Panic quickly takes hold and they to turn on each other. It's left up to Claire, the group's unlikely leader, to keep them together, find a way to escape, and somehow manage to stay awake.

It's always gratifying to find a horror movie that has the best of influences, and even more gratifying that it's an Irish crew of filmmakers that are making it all.

This is a well-crafted, tight 90 minutes that will keep viewers hooked and shows great potential from the up-and-coming filmmakers.

Ian Hunt-Duffy uses the limited setting to his advantage, escalating tension through the frayed sanity that can only come when someone stays awake much longer than they should.

Sunday Independent (Ireland)

This moody, claustrophobic chiller stretches its one good idea beyond breaking point -- but there is enough here to unnerve and, indeed, frighten even the most cynical participant.

Rated: 3/5

Felt a little long for 1.5 hour film, but hard to deny it was a solid piece of body horror.

Very intense. Some people said they got bored. I wasn't bored at all. Love the science and mild gore.

This sharp Irish indie builds tension so well, you’ll definitely think twice before signing up for a medical trial.
