Frank Scheck The Hollywood Reporter Dec 1, 2017
Although relatively subdued for much of its running time, Slumber eventually devolves into a lengthy, over-the-top climax that's both visually and narratively cheesy. Go to Full Review
Noel Murray Los Angeles Times Nov 30, 2017
"Slumber" itself feels like it was loosely adapted from a few cursory Google searches. Go to Full Review
Dennis Harvey Variety Nov 29, 2017
A promising buildup is eroded by too many rote jump scares, leading to a conventionally hectic and silly climax further undermined by an inappropriately campy, late-arriving performance. Go to Full Review
Craig Schroeder Battleship Pretension Jan 7, 2021
For horror hounds, Slumber may scratch a familiar itch but it ultimately fails to distinguish itself and, like most dreams, quickly fades from memory. Go to Full Review

2.5/5
Slumber is a tug-of-war between boogeyman haunter and psychological destroyer, neither side dealing anything more than serviceable nighttime blows. Go to Full Review

Leia S Dec 25, 2018 Go into this movie expecting what it is, a 'B' grade horror flick, and you will be entertained. I mean with a lead actress that has forgotten how to spell her last name you can't expect too much .. Maggie Q, I mean c'mon !! lol !! See more
Hermione S Oct 20, 2018 Just ok. Kinda like nightmare on elm street. cheap.
Hermione W Sep 30, 2018 La ejecución tan poco elaborada de este film es la que aca con el ritmo de un argumento que intenta explicar su trama pero la deja a media, sus personajes son pésimos y no logras conexión con nadie. See more
Abraham L Jun 23, 2018 This film has the framework, but lacks the structure to consider it horror-worthy. the director's lack of vision is revealed in the first five minutes of the movie; THE ART AND IMAGERY serves as a reminder that THERE ARE WORSE MOVIES OUT THERE, THAT ARE BETTER THAN what you're watching at the moment. I hate it when the horror director forces upon the saavy and seasoned horrorphile perspectives of the "unnecessary,' the person, place or thing that adds nothing to a script, - except celebrity status. Enter Maggie Q., a credible actor in her own right, who somehow manages to take a backseat to everyone in this film, including the janitor, related to the one person whose vision at first, appears limited by his dark, senior citizen shades, yet, validates the heroine's tortured past, confirms her suspicions about the family., and eventually reveals "his" solution to dealing with the "night hag." This movie would have had a better chance had the director filmed solely tHROUGH THE EYES OF THE FAMILY.. It's the one surefire, overused, formulaic cheat that when done well, may not save a movie, but it tells the story much better. The ending didn't come soon enough, but it did reinforce the feeling that "slumber" was a movie made with minimal funds and maximum misdirection. See more
May 31, 2018 I feel like I've been robbed of my time and money. I regret going to the movies to watch this.
Rey P Apr 11, 2018 Maggie Q. What were you thinking?
