Interesting facts

Dead Sleep is a 1990 Australian horror film directed by Alec Mills, about a series of suspicious deaths that occur in a psychiatric ward. The cast includes Linda Blair, veteran Australian actor Tony Bonner and Vassy Costiopoulos. The film went straight to video.

Production

The film was one of three low budget films produced as part of Village Roadshow’s 'The Silver Series', including slasher horror Bloodmoon and action film Hurricane Smith. The Silver Series reflected a departure from stereotypical Australian films of the past. The intention was to appeal to a new international market, based on the drawcard that films could be produced in Australia at a significantly lower cost than in the USA.
