## Resource

Episode 5: 'Dream Eater' When does "I can fix him" become "I can outrun him in the snow"? Eric and Josh tackle Dream Eater (2025), a found footage sleepwalking horror from directors Jay Kulik, Mallory Drum, and Alex Lee Williams. A filmmaker documents her boyfriend's violent parasomnia during a remote cabin getaway, but when his sleepwalking worsens, she suspects something far more sinister than a medical condition. They break down the Lovecraftian mythology, debate whether the chemistry works, and discuss why this film with so many ingredients they love somehow doesn't add up to a satisfying meal. Plus: the cartoonish Unsolved Mysteries vignette that ripped them out of the story, why you should always pack your bags when your partner starts crab-walking at 3 AM, and the disappointing CGI demon reveal that wasted the film's potential.
