Horror fans, brace yourselves: Never Sleep Again (2026) plunges audiences into a chilling realm where sleep offers no sanctuary and nightmares bleed into waking life. This psychological horror film reimagines the boundaries of fear, creating a relentless terror that lingers long after the credits roll.
At the heart of the story is Claire Winters, a college psychology student who begins experiencing violent, vivid nightmares after participating in a sleep study. When several other participants die mysteriously in their sleep, Claire becomes convinced that something monstrous is preying on them from within their dreams. Her journey to uncover the truth pulls her into a world where reality fractures, and trust becomes a dangerous gamble.
Directed by acclaimed horror auteur Jordan Price, Never Sleep Again delivers a masterclass in atmospheric dread.
