I just saw this on imdb & I recalled about 6 months ago, seeing a Documentary on amazon called the nightmare about sleep paralysis. I just looked it up again on amazon & it's not the same documentary as this newer one. Why would someone make a documentary on sleep paralysis & title it The Nightmare when there's already a documentary out called The Nightmare about sleep paralysis? Is it me or does that seem extremely lazy?

Hi. I haven't seen any of them but my guess is that Ascher may simply not have known about the previous documentary and both directors have come up with the same idea of reprising the title from Henry Fuseli's famous painting.
