Hollywood Reporter

Although relatively subdued for much of its running time, Slumber eventually devolves into a lengthy, over-the-top climax that's both visually and narratively cheesy.

"Slumber" itself feels like it was loosely adapted from a few cursory Google searches.

Variety

A promising buildup is eroded by too many rote jump scares, leading to a conventionally hectic and silly climax further undermined by an inappropriately campy, late-arriving performance.

For horror hounds, Slumber may scratch a familiar itch but it ultimately fails to distinguish itself and, like most dreams, quickly fades from memory.

Dread Central

Slumber is a tug-of-war between boogeyman haunter and psychological destroyer, neither side dealing anything more than serviceable nighttime blows.

Rated: 2.5/5

Otra película de terror clase B que va con la temática parálisis del sueño como su argumento principal, no sale tan bien. La forma desordenada de narrar la historia y el final ambiguo le juegan muy en contra.

The movie was good. The ending was a bit odd and didn’t really make much sense. But it was entertaining, I am a bit surprised the audience score was only 17%

Rated 4 out of 5 stars

A cinematic masterpiece, truly brought a tear to my eye with the amazing visuals and truly captivating acting. However a heavily overlooked aspect of this film is the role of Alice played by up and coming actor Zahra. P.S this is not Zahra herself on a fake account and anyone that suspects that should watch the film themselves and will undoubtedly adopt the same viewpoint as I.

Above average horror, though it eventually shows the monster, which takes the edge off the fright.

Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars

Tentativo terribile di horror in cui probabilmente l'unica cosa a funzionare è l'incipit con il racconto del fantomatico demone del sonno. Nel momento stesso in cui il film inizia, si fatica a trovare qualcosa di positivo. Trama sconnessa, scontata e personaggi terribilmente noiosi; una serie notevole di clichè tipici del genere e soprattutto una Maggie Q che dà vita ad una protagonista di una debolezza spaventosa. Non si trova un senso al film.

Rated 1 out of 5 stars
