The 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

The worst horror movie I watched recently. It is so silly and bad acted. The direction is awful, the whole movie is so serious and that even with no real storyline. It is also completely forgettable.

Rated 1 out of 5 stars

Just once, can I get a horror movie where people have some sort of common sense. Just once, please.

The name is very apt. It'll put you to sleep. Intriguing premise spoilt by pedestrian writing and an utterly silly climax.

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.

Rated 2 out of 5 stars
