we did a short over a year ago titled "The Nightmare" about the exact same topic...ripoff or coincidence? eh, pretty sure its a coincidence. Anyways, here it is

may not be the best short film out there but we trying!
No.
shareThis might come as a shock, but sleep paralysis is pretty popular subject matter and the title "Nightmare" is incredibly uncreative.
shareThis might come as a shock, but "condescending d-bag" is a pretty popular thing to be and you are an incredibly uncreative one.
The guy said it's a coincidence. No need to be a penis.
Right, but him saying it's a coincidence after pointing the plagiarism finger is like saying "no offense" and then completely laying into somebody.
shareThe description has nothing in common with this documentary. However I haven't seen either one.

-The Average IMDB Thread
You made a fictional short. The board you're on refers to a documentary.
Also, the plot is vastly different, and poorly-written:
While on a hike, Steven makes discovers a relic from another time. Intrigued by its mysterious nature, he takes it with him unknowingly unleashing the evil forces trapped within. With every passing night, the dead makes its way to Steven paralyzing him...consuming him.
LOL. I try not to shame other peoples' work, but that description borders on illiterate.
shareWell at least ITS was used correctly this time, instead of it's. I see this too often nowadays, even on "professional" news sites.
