Enter Sandman

This is an amalgam of "Poltergeist," "Close Encounters of the Third Kind," "Signs," "The Forgotten" and "Night Skies." It's as good or better than the best of 'em and is significantly more compelling than "Signs," which is a good movie but "Signs" is actually about something other than alien visitation.

Critics say it's "too slow," but I never got this impression. I found the steady build-up engaging with several effectively creepy or scary moments. This is the opposite of lame horror flicks like "The Hollow" (2015) where the filmmakers overdo it with amped-up horror clichés every three minutes to hold the attention of viewers with ADHD.

Keri Russell is competent and attractive, but looks like she needs to gain about 20-25 lbs.

It runs 1 hour, 37 minutes, and was shot in Santa Clarita, California, with additional work done in NYC.
