To co-inside with Dread’s next release, Sleepless Beauty (a film from Russia), we’re dedicated this #MonthOfDread to the best in foreign-language horror! We know that subtitles can be a barrier for some horror fans who may believe reading along somehow lessens the impact. Not so, and considering many of us will remain in quarantine throughout the end of 2020, it’s the perfect time to put in a bit of extra effort in order to open up a new world (literally) of thrilling genre content.

Synopsis:
Sleepless Beauty tells a twisted story about a young woman, Mila, who is kidnapped by a mysterious organization known as Recreation. Her unknown abductors talk to her through a loudspeaker and set strict rules: she cannot sleep and has to fulfill bizarre and violent tasks if she hopes to stay alive. At first, it looks like someone’s sick idea of entertainment but as the demands become more intense, Mila begins to realize that she is losing control of her own mind and instead, may be a pawn in a twisted and deadly psychological experiment.

Sleepless Beauty will be available on VOD + Digital platforms beginning Tuesday, November 10th, 2020 and will be available on Blu-ray beginning Tuesday, November 17th, 2020.
