Be Afraid: Sleep paralysis horror film hits On Demand and Digital in June

Sleep and what happens when we are asleep has been a driving theme in horror and dark fantasy for a century, from silent classics like The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari to key episodes of The Twilight Zone to Dreamscape to A Nightmare on Elm Street and beyond. Now, coming June 1st on On Demand and Digital from AMBI and Samuel Goldwyn Films is Be Afraid, a horror film dealing with sleep paralysis that stars Brian Krause (Sleepwalkers), Kevin Grevioux (Underworld, I Frankenstein), Louis Herthum (Westworld, True Blood, The Last Exorcism), Jaimi Paige (Peacock), and Callie Thorne (Rescue Me). Be Afraid is written by Gerald Nott and directed by Drew Gabreski. The film will ht DVD and Blu-ray in the summer of 2017.

Synopsis: Not long after John Chambers and his family arrive at their new home in a small country town of Pennsylvania, John begins to experience sleep paralysis.  Lying there paralyzed, trapped within his own nightmare, other-worldly beings visit John. They are entities which exist in the darkest shadows of the night and can only be seen out of the corner of one’s eye.  These encounters begin to haunt John, transforming to complete terror as he discovers the entities’ sole purpose… the abduction of his seven-year-old son. In the end, John will uncover the town’s horrific secret, a portal on his land, and make one last attempt to save his son before the shadow people permanently take him away to their world.
