Review of Come True

Come True (2020)
4/10
Lovecraft Rip-Off
25 January 2023
Warning: Spoilers
Canadian update of the H. P. Lovecraft story "Beyond The Wall of Sleep." Scientists use a device that can record people's dreams to try and help a young girl who dreams of weird, shadowy figures whose purpose is never explained. This Movie has some problems.

First of all, I don't care how old the lead actress is, her character looks 15 so the creepy Harry Potter lookalike scientist who stalks and eventually sleeps with her is a disturbing touch. The dream sequences are repetitive and over long, and the climactic "Sleepwalking" scene is interminable. And what was up with the vampire teeth? A nice try at updating Lovecraft, but this movie would benefit from some slash and burn editing and a MUCH better twist at the end.
