Day 213 of the challenge! Sleepwalkers is amazingly flawed and hilarious. Loved it! Stephen King has a thing with cats I've noticed. 

Liked:

  • Make no mistake, this is a BAD movie, but there was so much to appreciate. It made me laugh quite a few times with all it's cheese. Acting, effects, make-up, all terrible but fun! Does't take itself too seriously. 

  • Some of the visual effects are pretty nifty. 

  • Surprise Mark Hamill is always welcomed! 

  • The limited lore we get on Sleepwalkers is interesting. Gives you something to speculate on once the movie is over. 

  • No real cats were harmed in the making of this film. Good to know once you see what happens to some of them. 

Didn't like:

  • It's so nonsensical. Don't try and make sense of anything, you'll have a better time if you don't.

  • The plot is very..basic to say the least. Probably for the best in this case. 

  • As mentioned, the make-up and effects are good for a laugh, but overall they're terrible. Might have been a design issue too with most of them.
