Praise for In My Sleep:

"A well-stirred titillation that will appeal to twenty-something audiences and movie-buff viewers who appreciate the pursued-pursuer, Hitchcockian style of suspenser. Savvy Entertainment...filmmaker Allen Wolf torques this high-concept premise to darkest dimension. 'In My Sleep' works because the protagonist, while flawed, is completely likable and honorable. Philip Winchester exudes an integrity, as well as a gritty determination, which makes us root for him. Narratively, 'In My Sleep' never rests, a credit to the tight, psychologically astute pacing of filmmaker Wolf" - The Hollywood Reporter

"It works because everything about this movie (characters and plot) is learn as you go, giving you an ultimate sense of this could actually happen. The jump cut editing and gray scale motifs make you feel as though you are swimming through and drowning in the murky waters of Marcus¹ mind, experiencing his anxiety and trauma while learning the secrets of his past. It has you guessing along with Marcus, analyzing every clue, every lead and trying to solve the mystery before something else happens.

'It utilizes good scripts and acting to frighten the audience in a
mind-engaging thriller that you won¹t soon forget. It will have your mind racing from the minute it starts until long after the ending credits roll." - Campus Circle

"In My Sleep is a brilliantly written thriller that genuinely keeps one
guessing throughout the movie. The pacing is superb and the performances topnotch. Allen Wolf has created a very well made thriller." - Movie Guide

"A taut psychological thriller. Starring Philip Winchester (SYFY’s Jack of Hearts in ‘Alice’) as Marcus, the sleepwalker in question, the eye-candy factor is off the charts as the handsome actor spends most of his time onscreen with his clothes off but don¹t let that fool you that the film is short on story. A cross between Hitchcock and Memento, the award-winning indie thriller has several twists and turns and will keep you guessing to the end." - LA Dine n Club

"As 'In My Sleep' progresses, the goings-on grow increasingly strange with more twists and revelations than half a season of 'Law and Order' (albeit with much more attractive scenery than that TV showŠ). 'In My Sleep' manages to blend comedy and thriller quite well....The on-screen tension is so palpable that it¹s guaranteed to keep the theater in an edgy silence. Any glitches of 'In My Sleep' are made up for in a big way by the performance of the intensely charismatic Philip Winchester, as the intensely charismatic Marcus." - DishMiss.com

"An intriguing directorial debut from filmmaker Allen Wolf. Heavily influenced by Hitchcock, the film has definite references to legendary Psycho composer Bernard Hermann in developing Winchester's lead character and increasing tension." - Examiner.com

"There is an unbilled secondary star to this movie and it is Phillip Winchester’s abs. Winchester comes close to breaking the record for 'most screen time for chiseled abs' set by '300.' And this ain’t no CGI. He can act too..." - Film Radar

"I loved the movie...so well written and directed by Allen Wolf. There is plenty of suspense and you become so engrossed in trying to figure out who did what. I had it wrong a couple of times before the killer is revealed. Winchester carries the movie and makes everything his character is going through seem plausible. It’s an outstanding performance. - GregInHollywood.com

"You have to admire it...there¹s no chance you¹ll fall asleep. Kudos to Wolf for being able to finance the project and for persuading the erstwhile Amy Aquino to play the investigating cop and Beth Grant to portray Marcus’s mother."- BoxOffice.com
