Nightmares is a 1980 Australian slasher film, directed by John D. Lamond and was Gary Sweet's feature film debut.
Production
The film was shot by Lamond immediately after Pacific Banana (late 1979—early 1980) and edited at the same time. Lamond:
Nightmares should have been a lot better. We used the Steadicam camera for the first time in Australia on that. It was all right, but it didn't have any story. The technique was all right. Brian May's music was great. It was dumped by the distributor. No-one tried, nobody did anything. But it should have been better. Because it was a real quickie.
Lamond says it was John Michael Howson's idea to set the movie in a theatre.
The film features a bitchy theatre critic called Bennett Collingswood (played by John Michael Howson) who many observers felt was a veiled attack on Colin Bennett, film critic of The Age who was often critical of Australian films.
It was the first professional job for Gary Sweet who later called the film "terrible, diabolical" but says it got him thinking "acting was, you know, all right."
