PopHorror Let's Get Scared
Arrow Video has released two new videos for the November 2021 lineup for their subscription-based ARROW platform, available to subscribers in the US, Canada, the UK, and Ireland, a highlight reel of the month’s offerings, and a new trailer for Michael Venus’ Sleep, a dream-based nightmare.
The November lineup leads with the ARROW release of Michael Venus’ dream-based nightmare Sleep, available to subscribers in the US, Canada, the UK, and Ireland. Richly conceived and confidently told, director Michael Venus draws influence from Mario Bava, David Lynch, Franz Kafka, and the Brothers Grimm, but his voice is uniquely his own. As invested in substance and story as he is in style, Venus claws his way down to the roots of what haunts a people, a community, a nation, and comes up screaming. The film debuted on ARROW November 1.
Synopsis for Sleep

Determined to discover what happened to her, Mona (Gro Swantje Kohlhof) her daughter, follows and finds herself in Stainbach, an idyllic village with a dark history/secret. What is it that so tormented her mother, and the people of Stainbach? What is the source of the nightmares she suffered? Who is the mysterious Trude that lives in the forest?
