Overview

Two Vietnam Veterans have realistic nightmares about the war. So real are these nightmares that they start getting injured in them, and bringing things back that they had in the dream. They then buy weapons and go in to try and get one of their friends out that originally died in a POW camp during the Vietnam war. This is made harder by a traitor from the US Military Corps.

Length 88 minutes

Viewing Notes

David A. Prior only rips off A NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET a little in this Vietnam War dream-horror but fumbles a bit when he fails to cast his brother Ted. Balancing out that (now that I think about it a bit more) monumentally boneheaded move is Dan Haggerty. There are buttons of gun-cuased deaths (ooops, I mean people-using-guns-caused deaths) and reams of fuzzy dream logic but it’s never quite violent or dreamy enough. Fun, but Prior can/has/will do better.
