    This is a crime story with little to no interest in the who or the why, but only the what and the how. It's a reverse-procedural, tracking not the solution of a crime, but all of its awful particulars.

    Sleep Tight is a nifty little thriller that dances on the boundary between plausible and preposterous.

    Jaume Balabueró's effective thriller Sleep Tight puts more value on slow-building bad vibes than on pulled-curtain shock, but its treatment of mental illness and voyeurism, lightly salted with pitch-black humor, will feel pleasingly familiar to fans of the older film.

    A great many New Yorkers are rightfully indebted to doormen, but Jaume Balagueró's nasty little thriller offers a decidedly darker perspective.

  1. A terrible and no-sense movie. There is bare action, one setting, 0% horror and 3% thriller and 0 scare. Grossly and typically a really bad movie. Definetly a 0. Expand
