This idea is great in itself. Influencing people through dreams. Also, the fact that such ability could be used to assassinate the president. These are simply good ideas that are even utilized in several great horror scenes. Unfortunately, overall it is indebted to Hollywood production, and I somehow wasn't captivated by it. (2015.10.28)

Is the similarity with the first Nightmare purely coincidental? It seems so, since Dreamscape was appeared in movie theaters just two months before, but even so the similarity (in details and overall, from the dream rules to the villain’s claws) is flabbergasting. Although this isn’t primarily a horror, but more of an adventure ride, during the dream sequences it certainly can be pretty scary (mainly the president’s second dream is an absolute delicacy in this respect). Plus the movie contains dreams that are not just nightmares, and they are also A-grade, in other words, all dreams here score full marks. Because they are inventive and each one is completely different, with their own stylization and poetry. From driving away kids’ nightmares to wet dreams (unfortunately only the censored version). Too bad that it wasn’t more successful in its day. Both the main protagonist and the entire idea would have warranted a sequel. (2010.08.14)
