Proof that you don't need millions to make a decent film., 22 October 2005
Author: EyeAskance from fabulous Las Vega$!

I love seeing low-budget and NO-budget films rise above their limitations and succeed in becoming something greater than merely watchable. "BEYOND DREAM'S DOOR" is such a film, one that presents an intelligent and engaging story with enough resourcefulness and fecund imagination to make the shortcomings of a meager budget far less obvious. Sure, some of the special effects are on the hokey side(but wonderfully gross!), and the acting is fairly amateurish...but don't let forgivable flaws hold you back from enjoying this wild, surreal tale of a young man being relentlessly tormented by his nightmares, both in sleep and awake. Things are far more complex within the story, but let's save good surprises for viewing time.

Seven out of ten stars...I'm not boiling over with the enthusiasm of other reviewers here, but I was pleasantly surprised with this film.
